[FR-devel] The current status of the FreeRIDE

[NISHIO Mizuho]

Because I have some spare time, now I am trying to port rbbr.rb
(Ruby/GTK Class Browser, which is included in Ruby/GTK tar.gz) 
to FreeRIDE and make the wrapper of 
YARD(Yet Another Ruby Debugger. See RAA).

In this ML, it seems that FOX is used for the first release of 
the FreeRIDE. According to this policy, FXRuby/FXScintilla is being
deveolped. But, Vruz forked Rouge Project in Wiki Page and Rouge-ML.

So, I have a question. The first release of FreeRIDE is developed 
by using FOX, or is not released until the framework of Rouge Project 
is provided? If FreeRIDE adopts FOX, I will use it as the GUI of
rbbr.rb and the wrapper of YARD. Otherwise, I want to know the summary
of the current status of the Rouge project(Though I get the past 
mails of Rouge-ML, it is difficult for me to read them. 
They are too many. ;-) )

P.S.
In my opinion, the cross-platform, lightweight, and intenationalized 
Ruby's GUI library is definitely needed. But, we should continue to
develop the prototype of the FreeRIDE even if we don't have 
Rouge's framework.
