Yes, certainly. I hope to have a version of QtRuby working on Linux/Mac OS X
by the time the final version of Qt 4 is released. I don't have a Windows
development environment, so someone else will then need to port the code to
Windows. 

I'm assuming that won't be difficult, but I might be wrong. A few weeks ago
someone on this list reported that they'd tried to compile the 'Smoke'
library that QtRuby uses on Windows, but it failed with a load of compile
errors about incorrect casts. Maybe using gcc instead of VC++ will cure
that problem.
