have you tried the mingw32 1.8.2 windows install that eban
uploaded to raa today? i found cygwin very unstable in the
past, maybe other versions work much better? if i remember
correctly there are some bugs in completion on linux also,
but not as severe as the ones you see. not many people use
windows here unfortunately so until the windows users help
out nothing much will change. (the people that do use windows
are severely time limited and there are very few of them :( )

ruvi also supports the rrb refactoring, and i also noticed
that while it works well on small examples it falls down
majorly on more complex examples. if you could file bug
reports with testcases i'm sure that someone out there
would be willing to fix them :)

wouldn't say its very slow :)
but yeah. it could be faster.

i've not seen this. never really found any real uses for aop :)
maybe if i had more time to refactor rather than struggling
with ugly code i'd be happier :)

you mean these above problems or more?

"Ruby, but Fast", sounds good.
