Hi,
as many of you know, in January 2013 we started a project which played with an idea to automatically translate YCP portion of YaST codebase into Ruby. Me and Josef Reidinger worked on this and before Hack Week 9 [1] we reached a state where we were able to completely translate and run the "sysconfig" YaST module.
Just to make it clear: the whole YaST architecture is still the same (e.g. UI/modules/SCR levels, agents, Gtk/Qt/ncurses UIs, Pkg bindings, perl/python bindings...). We only translate YCP files to Ruby and run them via ruby-bindings, the rest of Yast is unchanged.
What do you think?
IMO we should go for it, the sooner the better ;-) We already have discussed advantages of using Ruby in the past (see e.g. [1][2] threads), I don't think we need to do it again. IMHO the only thing is to get green from managers so we can officially work on it.
