ruby TUIO client useage

i was snooping around the inter-tubes and found a blog post about using my tuio client.  since i use Processing for any graphical front ends, i use jruby to run my hybird java/ruby TUIO projects.   since, the JVM uses native threads instead of “green” threads like c-ruby, there isn’t any waiting on other threads to execute nonsense.  i would think that something similar to thread starvation would be a particularly pesky problem if you integrated with c/c++ libs that had ruby extensions.

in other news, i’m working up a thin jruby wrapper for Processing to give an example of how to integrate audio, midi, and the tuio libraries into a singe processing project.
