Hey hey!<br><br>I see the nice <a href="http://bitrock.com/products_ruby_overview.html" target="_blank" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)">
bitrock</a> people have a Ruby stack for the web. It includes Rails.<br><br>I believe it would be really really useful to put an effort into drawing a line under features for Nitro so that it is a viable candidate for a packaged stack.
<br><br>As a first step, what do you reckon by making a "Bitrock Nitro" add-on, that people can fit into a Bitrock stack for themselves? <br><br>Some thoughts from a Saturday on the web.<br><br>Aloha,<br> Will.

<h3>Integrated Open Source Ruby Distribution</h3>
<p>RubyStack is a freely available, ready to run distribution of Ruby
on Rails™. Packaged with a very user-friendly installer, RubyStack
makes it easy to have an enterprise-ready Rails environment up and
running in just minutes. It allows you to take advantage of the
stability, low cost and high performance of Ruby on Rails without the
hassle of integrating, configuring, and supporting your own build.</p>
<p>RubyStack is currently available for Linux and Mac OS X, with support for Windows and Solaris coming soon. As with all of our <a href="http://bitrock.com/products_webstacks_overview.html" target="_blank" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)">
Web Stacks</a>, RubyStack is free to
<a href="http://bitrock.com/download_ruby_download.html" target="_blank" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)">download</a>
and use under the terms of the Apache 2.0 license. As the stack
contains several open source tools and libraries, it is important that
you read and comply with the licenses for each stack component.</p>
<p>RubyStack offers two installation profiles to make it easy to set up
Ruby in both development and production environments. Both profiles
install the following open source software, along with several other <a href="http://bitrock.com/products_ruby_specifications" target="_blank" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)">tools and libraries</a>
.</p>
<ul><li>Ruby</li><li>Subversion</li><li>SQLite</li><li>MySQL</li><li>ImageMagick</li><li>Several Ruby Gems, including: Rails, Mongrel, mongrel_cluster and RMagick</li></ul>
<p>The Production installation profile also installs Apache 2.2 with
rewrite and proxy support, so you have everything you need to deploy
your Ruby on Rails applications. You can learn more about the <a href="http://bitrock.com/products_webstacks_features.html" target="_blank" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)">benefits</a> of using BitRock Web Stacks or go directly to the
