Subject: Plans for compiling Ruby to binary bytecode?

Greetings,

My understanding is that Ruby internally uses a custom VM (virtual
machine) to execute.  This VM has its own set of instructions
(bytecode).  I was wondering whether or not there were any plans to
allow one to compile Ruby down to a set of these instructions and stick
it into a binary file (much like Java, or .NET) and then use the Ruby's
VM to execute it?

Thanks,

--JM
