Few weeks ago, I've created for my own needs a new XBMC client, programmed in pure Ruby, and based on a library that I've developed in order to wrap XBMC HTTP API into a ruby class.
ncXBMC is a remote XBMC client, which aims to provide a full control of the music player over a local network. It can be used to browse library, manage playlist, and control playback.
The interface has been greatly inspired by ncmpc, a curses client for the Music Player Daemon (MPD, that I've used a lot before building a new HTPC based on XBMC).
Even if it's a young project, ncXBMC already proved to be really useful for my daily usage of XBMC and appear to be stable enough for a first release, so I've decided to take some time this Week End to share it.
Project is actually hosted on GitHub. I've written a presentation page on the Wiki.

Finally, I would like to use this post to send a big thanks the XBMC Team. XBMC is an amazing software. Nothing else to add
