I stand corrected:

…and I think I like it.

I hope to be wrong but from what I understood the plan for Microsoft is to have a Rails like implementation through their MVC framework by allowing IronRuby to run on to of it.
It’d be nice to have native Rails apps running on IronRuby though.

So wait then… if the ruby is sound, how would they prevent you from running rails? I mean, just write it with whatever quirks microsoft has dreamt up, assuming they were silly enough to do so. It’s not like the ruby compiler is going to check the running file and say ‘you rails? ok… nope, no don’t run.’ If it’s ruby, and rails is written in ruby, what other conclusion can you come up with? Seriously. Conspiricies conspiracies!

What about the exit barrier?
Preventing someone from being able to easily leave the windows platform has been taken pretty seriously in the past. Perhaps IronRuby will have an IronRails compliment which is (not quite) compatible with the ’standard’ Ruby on Rails… ?

I hope you’re right…and I’m starting to soften a bit myself. If Microsoft is truly behind John Lam in making a “compatible” IronRuby, then Rails has to come along with that. The moment they release an IronRuby 1.0 that doesn’t run Rails they’ll be admitting they’re not serious. So perhaps they have no choice but to make Rails run.

Now whether they’ll be able to get there is another story entirely. I wish John and his team the best of luck.
