About a week ago, Pat Eyler, who writes the "On Ruby" blog contacted me to ask if I would be willing to participate in one of his "Questions Five Ways" theme articles.
Pat picks five people who he thinks would make an interesting mix, throws a question at them to start a discussion, then sits back and lets the exchanges fly, then weaves them into an article.
So I had a very enjoyable several days discussing the topic with Steve Yegge, James Edward Gray II,, Diomedis Spinellis, and Don Stewart.
The result can be seen here.
