BB10 and Mono

I am back, with my usual mono antics! RIM recently had a conference and showed off more of BB10. I have decided I will attempt (albiet in my spare time) to use C# to create a Cascade application. I have a few ideas how i'll accomplish this. I'll post more info as time goes on.

Fix for the 500 Internal Server Error after the upgrade to Rails 2.0.1

Enjoy Rails 2.0+

I am not sure if it was my previous experience with parsing and Antlr (or Irony), or how clean and expressive the GOLD parser framework is, but I've been able to create a working parser in just a few days of coding. And by working, I mean it parses and understands valid LLVM IR straight from the project's documentation:  I actually implemented a a lot more operations and keywords needed to parse the example. It was just easier that way. I am going to now start building an AST. I've decided to be a bit aggressive because I think the AST will drive ...
