As a language, can we make Ruby as signficant as Latin, Ancient Greek or Sanskrit
summary
Claim: use Ruby on Rails plus grassroots education to make a programming culture as memorable as Latin or Sanskrit. Evidence: a volunteer-run group called Ruby Nuby / Ruby newbie grows to 800 members (700 earlier), wins a two‑minute video contest with 31,000 votes, and pilots classes at NYU; metric claims include 75% more cost effective development. Deliverables: apprenticeship camps, a social learning network, plans for 120 community centers and low‑power mobile deployments in Uganda and Kenya; initial funding runs on credit cards and volunteer time.
