[Ruby] memcached-like Ruby+Erlang implementation

[Corey Jewett]

That's terribly disappointing -- that you'd write off one of the more  
active RBs because of the actions of a few. This is an unmoderated  
list. It's not like someone is sitting around holding everyone's  
tongue in check for them. Last I checked one of the quasi-leaders of  
the group said something like:

"Can we please stop with this shit? smiley or not. I would have
thought that this weekend's debacle with "rubychicks" was a good
example of how not to think/speak/act." -- Ryan Davis, 5/21/07 16:57 PDT

Guess the message didn't get through to the 'childish' among us. Of  
course if you're that sensitive maybe you won't be missed. I'm sure  
Ryan's occasional masterful use of the language rubs you the wrong  
way too. ;)
