Hey Pete,
This is very cool stuff.
One of these days we're going to take a look and see how Ruby fits.
You've saved us the hard work of figuring out how to make it play :-)
Since I just returned from Italy I will say.....Grazzi..Grazzi..
That will be $50 for a 2 minute cab ride :-)

subject: Ruby on Rails on i
A while back I started a "pet" project to port Ruby to the PASE
environment on my lumbering model 270. It was rather in the same vein
as running PHP on the i : I don't immediately have a project requiring
it but curiosity got the best of me and I love a challenge so I went
ahead and did it. I have Ruby on Rails running on my 270. It IS SLOW
so patience is currently required. I am learning more about Rails and
how to improve performance so I still have a ways to go until we are
ready to develop a "production" site using Ruby.
It is a proof of concept site. It is completely running on the 270 in
PASE. Apache is doing a little traffic routing but the actual
application is running in PASE. If any of you are interested, take a
look. It add yet another technology to the System i's bag of tricks.
You can expect me to do a presentation on Ruby on Rails on i at next
year's Spring Common conference. This is fairly cool stuff.
