[fxruby-users] Inheritance

[Uwe Hartl]

Thank you very much and sorry for forgetting the cc.
Understood. I think I don't care about the Data instantiation, since the 
classes (DataFixNum, DataTime) inherit from a common base class which 
provides a common "interface" for both. So lets be the Data class of 
temporary nature.
