If anyone is interested in working with Ruby's AST then it shouldn't be 
too hard to look at the source code of both ParseTree and RubyNode. They 
both depend on some C code and both seem to support Ruby 1.8.4 and 1.9. 
What other features are you interested in?

I'll be honest, too. I can understand that Ryan and Eric are 
disappointed, but I think you shouldn't blame Dominik for his answer.
