Hi Nick, I just went for a little reading to http://jruby.org/ and although writing code in JRuby might not be different than writing in Ruby it seems that deploying the application might involve some other steps I am not familiar with.
My applications run in intranets with very few users and the setup we use is very simple: Mongrel as web service and deployment is just an application folder copy away. I'd like to keep things as simple as possible for now. If I use JRuby, do I need to use GlashFish or can I still use Mongrel as my web server? Do I need to deploy using a .war file or can I just copy the application's folder as I am currently doing? Thanks a lot.
