Subject: Re: IronRuby Question...

IronRuby is an implementation of Ruby designed to run
on the .NET platform. As such, I suspect if you write proper
libraries in Ruby and wrap them up nicely you could theoretically
do that with VB.NET. However my understanding of the state of
IronRuby right now is that its not fully compatible at this point.

What you're asking though entirely depends on what stage IronRuby
is at. Similarly Java can make calls to JRuby.
