That may be true of project meetings but it's not IMHO true of Amazon. My experience is that almost everything gets rave reviews, even when it's clearly drivel. Bad reviews are rare. Almost uniformly bad reviews are *very* rare. (I mostly surf science books, maybe it's different for programming.) >Frankly, I don't put too much stock in reviews by non-professionals >(and even with them have to consider how they are paid, and who pays >their bosses) but most of them _do_ try to provide some justification >for their conclusions and in the context of greater issues beyond the >subject at hand.

I just hope that the people who will make a difference to Ruby are similarly wise. Cheers, Jeremy Henty
