9.2 Authors
For the most part, RubyCocoa has been a well-kept secret, but occasionally it has drawn public attention:
- In May 2002, Dr. Dobb’s Journal published an article by Chris Thomas titled Examining RubyCocoa.
- Rod Schmidt gave a talk on RubyCocoa at O’Reilly’s 2003 Mac OS/X Conference titled Cocoa Programming with Ruby & RubyCocoa. He also wrote an article on O’Reilly’s macdevcenter.com on how to Read iCal Data with Ruby.
- In 2004, Christopher Roach wrote a pair of articles on O’Reilly’s macdevcenter.com.
Here they are: Part 1 and Part 2.
- Doug Beaver wrote a series of blog posts on RubyCocoa, and in February 2005 he presented a talk titled Rapid Application Development With RubyCocoa.
- and there’s me, Tim Burks. I built this web site. Thanks for visiting!
