Hi,
Does anyone know what happened to these? The below link is not valid.

Have these been superseded or is there some other HTML reports I can

I've removed Test::Reporter from RubyForge, because there are two superior
alternatives:
ci-reporter, that does all of the same and more:
http://caldersphere.rubyforge.org/ci_reporter/
and CruiseControl.rb, that makes the whole business of fancy test results
formatting largely unnecessary:

I think the short answer is that, at the time RubyForge was
established, the most appropriate software for running a site like it
was GForge -- which happens to be written in PHP (and other languages,
as I recall). There are at least a few possible Ruby-based
replacements (like RedMine?) that are now available, but I can only
imagine how much of a task it would be to migrate all of the existing
projects hosted by RubyForge to a different system.
By the way -- what language is your e-mail client written in? You
*did* use a Ruby-based e-mail program to post your message, didn't
you?

You'll find that tons of Ruby sites use PHP based software. Why? KISS.
You don't always have to build it. If a good solution exists that you already know how to use, it's not a bad idea.
There are still PHP sites built with Perl...
Doesn't matter. All you're seeing is the file extension. It could be .bob as long as the server knows what to do with it, like sending it to the appropriate interpreter. You'll notice, or not notice, that many Rails sites and PHP sites serve pages with no file extension, because the browser does not care!

I sometimes wonder why non English-speakers create programming languages
that are in English.
But then I realize how totally fun it would be if all of Ruby's base classes
and syntax were in Japanese.

Historical reasons.
Is there any other type of reason for anything?
But then I realize how totally fun it would be if all of Ruby's base classes

It would either finally impel me to get back to learning Japanese, or
keep me from learning Ruby. I'd give it about 50% either way.

I struggled through two years of Russian in college because someone had told me that the Russians were ahead of the USA in math and computer science. Hell, it turned out that they were still using vacuum tubes and the only thing they knew how to do better than we did was probability theory. I should have learned French instead -- or Japanese.

It was the Pickaxe -- good eye. I paraphrased, of course.
I note, by the way, that my randomly selected signature block below is
remarkably well suited to this topic.

I should have kept practicing Japanese after that last Japanese class.
Now, I don't even remember how to ask for a restroom. I get a kick out
of watching Japanese movies with subtitles and marvelling at the wide
disparity between translation and original Japanese, though, based on
the bits I still understand.

The use of vacuum tubes provided a significant defence against EMP or weapons designed to scramble the electronics, any system built around vacuum tubes is less likely just to pack up. This would have allowed the Soviet fighter planes to be operational in the same theatre as nuclear weapons were being used. Of course this was probably a happy coincidence and not a design decision.

Um . . . okay, I'll look that up later tonight. Sounds like it should
at least be worth a few moments' amusement to read about it, though I'm
pretty sure I won't want to learn it any time soon, based on that
description.
