Ummm... Yes you are. Have you seen reflector? Unless you're writing all your code in C++, you're pretty much shipping the source. Every ignorant manager seems to have this attitude that just because someone can see the source somehow means that you'll lose your intellectual property or your program will get hacked. This is blatantly false - how many years have we all been using open source software!!?!? yet the opinion still keeps hanging around like a bad smell. </rant> Sorry :-) _______________________________________________ Ironruby-core mailing list Ironruby-core@rubyforge.org http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/ironruby-core
