I think the reason for the discussion was related to the suggestion that,
because GTK is involved, maybe a Ruby-centric Linux distro should use
GNOME as its default desktop environment.

Personally, I'd like to see a window manager written in Ruby, if there's
going to be a Ruby-centric Linux distro.

Why do you say that either KDE or GNOME is "your decision ultimately"?

Uh . . . what?  Since when is Trac a Python-based Weblog platform?  Since
when is phpBB a PHP-based Weblog platform?  One is a wiki and issue
tracking system, and the other is a forum, or bulletin board, site.
Neither of them is relevant to whether there's a direct competitor to
WordPress written in Ruby.
