By the way, great talk at rails conf. I wanted to follow up on my
question at the session about documentation for extension writing.
Can anyone point me towards either some documentation on writing
extensions or a good example of how extensions are written? I've
found a couple of gems that are broken because not all of the
standard ruby extensions are implemented and I would like to write
the extensions to fix the gems. Specifically, the Stomp gem is
broken, and the daemons gem is broken. Stomp is missing the io/wait
extension and daemons is missing the File#umask method. Thanks.
Re: documentation...
Yes, we need this information. Ola has been promising some docs on
this, since he's packaged more extensions than anyone else. Ola, is
there a wiki page yet for the full extension/gem recipe?

Well no, not really. What is is my tutorial in my blog, and the
information I sent you on email. And I'm having a few time issues right
now (book schedule, relocation etc), so I don't think I'll be able to
create more documentation until I land in London.
