Why aim if not high? :-)

I'd host it but the University tends to frown on personal ftp servers ;-)

Not to try to shove a load to someone else, but between the webspace at rubygarden and ruby-lang perhaps there's room for a second "RAA"? I'd help in managing/starting this up so as not to add more work for Matz or Dave...

thoughts?

We are aiming too high. Even my previous post about web services and blah blah blah was waaay too ambitious.

(Programming in Ruby does not make things easier when one has to come back to earth and earthly expectations. Shame on you, matz. ;-) )

I guess that whoever has got a machine with a permanent connection could easily set up an ftp server and a bunch of accounts and there would be the repository.

Things could be organized like /additions/agreed/xarray.rb, /additions/agreed/xstring.rb etc. for those additions of general use and agreed implementation, and /additions/joe/xstring.rb, /additions/john/xarray.rb etc. for personal additions (either for review for the /agreed dir or just for sharing).

I hate to make proposals I cannot start myself to make real, but on a 33.6k phone connection I'm not a good candidate. :-(
