Subject: ANNOUNCEMENT: Ruby-Maemo Developer Preview Release.<BR>
<BR>
I've been working on bindings for the Ruby language to interface with Maemo.<BR>
I've made quite a lot of progress building on the Ruby-Gnome2 source tree<BR>
implementing the majority of widgets and their features.<BR>
<BR>
Currently there is _no_ documentation for the Hildon widgets I've implemented<BR>
but I've tried to stick to the Ruby-Gnome2 guidelines and naming conventions as<BR>
much as possible. I have made available a basic example application and will be<BR>
adding more in the next few days.<BR>
<BR>
Currently the files are being distributed as a .tar.gz file. The tree _has_<BR>
to be unpacked in the /home/user dir where it'll create bin, lib and man<BR>
directories. I'm sorry about the current state of the package but I'm new to<BR>
Maemo and fairly new to creating large ruby extensions and a complete newbie<BR>
when it comes to creating debian packages :)<BR>
<BR>
Hope you enjoy it. All feedback is welcome there are more than likely plenty<BR>
of bugs that need to be sorted out before it's ready for a major release.<BR>
<BR>
You can get a tar of the package for the Nokia N800 (Maemo 3.2) from:<BR>
