Ola Bini is the creator of the language Ioke, a lead implementer of JRuby and, in short, a man who knows a lot about implementing languages on top of the JVM.

Tonight he is going to share his experiences and guide us through the most interesting features of both his own message passing language Ioke and JRuby.

As the Java world transistions from being a language to being a platform for many languages, questions about how to support and develop new languages on top of the JVM and how to manage the evolution of the JVM are going to become increasingly important.

Please feel free to download Ioke before the event and give it a go during the talk as Ola walks through some of the features.
