Subject: ruby-fltk project abandoned?

I recently switched several of my c++ projects from ___ to FLTK 1.1.7 
beta (initial one for licensing reasons, and then all others for 
productivity/preference reasons).

The productivity benefits of fltk/fluid seem to be a perfect match for 
ruby's famed productivity (and the licensing is similarly liberal--no 
need to share code just because it is statically linked to the gui 
toolkit while being normal-LGPL regarding modifications to the gui 
toolkit itself).

To my dismay, I discovered that ruby-fltk is horribly out-of-date so I 
cannot use ruby with my new favorite GUI toolkit!

Are there plans to revitalize the ruby-fltk project?  Or is there a 
newer project that already took its place?

This might be a good project for a grant...ruby and fltk seem like a 
perfect match (licensing, productivity, very active development).
