Don't know if you ever got any replies to this, but I'd like to
request a specific article.

I'd love to see an article about using Ruby to build a DSL. Seems
Austin Ziegler had mentioned that he had started work on one, not sure
if he's finished it yet.

I see a lot of DSL's out there, and a lot of talk about how Ruby makes
building DSL's easier, but no comprehensive tutorial/overview for the
topic.

Any volunteers? Are there articles out there, and I just haven't found them?

Jim Weirich held a (reportedly very good) presentation on DSLs
at RubyConf2005. At least Ryan Davis is hosting a PDF version:

The response was nothing close to what I had hoped. But I, too, would
like to see a good technical article on DSLs.

Excellent, thanks for the link.
Made me go dig up the videos, the two should go well together.

My request still stands though -- the more info the merrier.

I would also like very much to see a good tutorial on building DSLs
in Ruby. Jim Weirich's talk was a good talk, but I am still missing
some things.

I'd like to contribute, but I'm so bogged down here right now that I
won't have time to write anything until at least next (solar) year.
Besides I'm a relative newbie, so my 'code & style' is probably not the
best - still I'd be happy to help

I'd like to 'sign up' to do an article on creating DSLs with Ruby, though I
can't really start working on something like that until after mid-February
(after my thesis defense :). Also, I'm not sure that the two DSLs I've created
using Ruby (RHDL - Ruby Hardware Description Language and QDL- Quantum Design
Language) have enough mainstream appeal, so I'd probably have to come up with
some other example DSL.
