My idea on making it kind-of-work with Ruby would be to simply serve XUL xml etc from a Ruby app. Could it work as long as you stay with the default components? I understand that to make new components/widgets you'd need to use rbxpcom or revert to javascript for the wdiget code. I guess instead of writing it in XML we could do a YAML layer and output the XUL XML from the objects created by the YAML loader. Regards, Robert
