Hi again, I think I may have partly found my own answer.
Looking at this gist http://gist.github.com/14050 by Andy Freeman, it seems to do much of what I'm looking for right now (thanks, awesome!!). But playing around with it a bit, calling self.described_type which I thought would return the class, it's not, it seems to be looking only for a module? def described_type description_parts.find {|part| part.is_a?(Module)} end Is there something I'm missing?
