Here's the ones I know about:

* Copland -- Hivemind based from Jamis Buck

* DI -- The version I wrote about in response to Jamis's Copland talk. (see 
http://onestepback.org/index.cgi/Tech/Ruby/DependencyInjectionInRuby.rdoc)

* Needle -- Again from Jamis, based DI.

* MinDI -- Minimal framework from Joel VanderWerf 
(http://redshift.sourceforge.net/mindi)

* seep -- Inspired by Spring (i.e. lots of XML), by Gary Shea 
(http://seep.rubyforge.org/index.html)

* DIM -- Dependency Injection, Minimal, 30 lines of Ruby Code, developed for 
my OSCON talk (currently unreleased ... I'll post it after OSCON).
