I changed the packaging of the Plucker version of the bundle docs; each file is now directly available, as well as the all-in-one PDB file. See the downloads page.

Chapter 2 of Einfuhrung in Ruby is available

Douglas Palovick has converted all of the documents in the document bundle to Plucker PDB format. The docs are available in zip and tgz archives; the archive has a PDB file for each doc, plus one combo PDB for the whole set.

Available from the download page.

Robert Gogolok has started a German translation of Daniel Carrera's "Introduction to Ruby" (link)

The first chapter is available on rubyobjc.com here. There is also a link from the documents page.

As new chapters are completed they will be added to the site.

Viel Dank, Robert!
