As far as I can tell, Rubinius doesn’t lose any momentum. Their
GitHub page is quite active and every day a good number of commits
happen: https://github.com/rubinius/rubinius

They seem to target at version 2.0.0 now, and I’m really looking
forward to this due to the 1.9 compatibility. The development versions
I compiled from the git repoistory were already quite capable of 1.9.
What I’m missing most currently is (s)printf with named substituations
à la "%{name}", because they are really good for translation files.

Vale,
