It made sense to me. 

Not meaning to belittle you, but you wrote Ruby would be a learning curve. 
To help you overcome some of these, check out some of these resources on 
www.ruby-doc.org:

Chris Pines "Learn to program" (easy, under Getting Started)
Brian Schr�ders "Ruby Course" (medium, under Why Ruby)

Good luck.

All the best
