Yes: time and patience.

In fact, I think we are attacking the 'not enough libraries' thing
straight on -- or as straight on as possible given the volunteer and
highly organic nature of this kind of effort.

I have to assume that the same process that has happened with Perl and
Python will happen with Ruby.  As it matures, more and more quality
modules will come into existence.

As a completely-satisfied Ruby programmer, I don't find much lacking.
