How about translating the japanese books in ruby? -see
http://www.rubycolor.org/maki/txt/rubybooks.html

It would be a noble task. Not only will you be aiding a lot of non-jp
programmers here, you will also be aiding yourself since you can sell these
books (count me as one buyer). I remember sir matz mention that jap books
are very cheap... so I hope you'll sell your translated book cheap too :-)
