Hello Anthony,

I would like to help porting my library to Ruby.
That would be a good way to learn it ;)
But I would need someone to help with the trickier parts at least:
- reading XML
- hash libraries (MD5, SHA-1, SHA-256, maybe ED2K)
- HTTP requests and responses including headers
- bin2ascii for creating and parsing BitTorrent

The Python code is a bit more than 2000 lines long and I would port
most of them.

Anyone interested?
