This looks very cool!

Now, if only tinyrb worked on Windows, Go worked on Windows and I
could overcome my deep-seated hatred against so-called "systems
programming languages"[1] and actually bring myself to learning the
damn thing.

Anyway, regarding your "see where that leads", I have a couple of
questions:

* Are you planning to use Go's garbage collector or provide your own? 
    Currently, tinyrb uses the Boehm-Demers-Weiser conservative 
    garbage collector (AFAIK anyway), which incidentally is also the 
    collector used by one of the two Go implementations. Marc-Andr辿 
    was considering switching to reference counting, which 
    incidentally is also what the *other* Go implementation is 
    planning on doing.

* Are you simply using Go as an implementation language, like, say, 
    tinyrb, MRI, YARV or Rubinius do or are you planning some sort of 
    interoperability between Go and Ruby as JRuby and IronRuby do or 
    even a very deep unification of the two languages like MacRuby and 
    MagLev?

* Are you planning on implementing Threads with Goroutines? What about 
    Fibers, Continuations?

* Are you planning on surfacing the CSP/Pi-calculus style concurrency 
    of the Go runtime somehow in Ruby?

* Are you planning anything at all, or just having fun? (-:

jwm

[1] This hatred is rooted in two things:

      1.) "Systems programming language" is commonly used as a 
            euphemism for "crappy programming language" in the sense 
            that "we know it's crap but it's okay, because it's a 
            systems programming language!". Ex.: C, C++, Java

      2.) I strongly believe that systems programming languages should 
            not exist. Writing operating systems, garbage collectors, 
            compilers, interpreters, real-time systems, interrupt 
            handlers, databases, etc. *in* Lisp, Smalltalk, Python, 
            Haskell has been done for decades, as has writing fast 
            implementations *for* them.
