+# x-times mruby
+
+The source code of mruby was just released a month ago. Despite the fact
+that there is still a long way to got for this new implementation, it
+already proofs to be useful by being slim and still powerful.
+
+I want to introduce a new approach of customizing a Ruby Interpreter for
+a specific task. Having such a strip-down Ruby implementation could make
+it feasible to approach i.e. parallelism in an Erlang way. Or open even
+more areas to Ruby.
+
+Let's see how many mruby's we can code.
+

+Daniel Bovensiepen is currently living in China where he is building
+signaling systems for metros (subways) all over the world. Everyone
+is telling him that he can not use Ruby in these environments but he
+still insist on proving them wrong by showing how to integrate
+non-safe technologies like Ruby into safety-critical environments without
+risks.
+
+Since the release of mruby he made several contributions like an
+embeddable version of the irb and a new test system for the mruby
+implementation which can easily run directly on embedded devices.
+
+With the rising of mruby his dream of making embedded programming
+as easy as web programming might come true in the long-run.
