About this time my battery died on my laptop and this year there is no power available in the rooms (which is a major bummer) so my notes on this talk aren’t as good as my other notes.
Basically this talk was about a number of libraries available to make working with distributed ruby very easy. The first is Drb with is the base library need to use distributed ruby. The second is Rinda which is a server used to register and communicate with your ruby services.
Mark then went onto to cover his Mack Framework which is a framework for building portal like applications in Ruby. It basically gives you a very easy way to bring multiple applications together into a portal application using distributed ruby to communicate between the different applications.
