Let's decide the supported platforms.

== Background

http://redmine.ruby-lang.org/projects/ruby-19/wiki/SupportedPlatforms

== Process

If you want to support a platform, please declare.
But when a platform dependent bug is reported, it will be assigned to you.

== Current Maintainer

mswin32, mswin64 (Microsoft Windows):
  NAKAMURA Usaku (usa)
mingw32 (Minimalist GNU for Windows):
  Nobuyoshi Nakada (nobu)
IA-64 (Debian GNU/Linux):
  TAKANO Mitsuhiro (takano32)
Symbian OS:

AIX:
  Yutaka Kanemoto (kanemoto)
FreeBSD:
  Akinori MUSHA (knu)
Solaris:
