I think that would be good.  This makes the index = of www.rubyarchive.org sort of a splash page..an entry point for all = things Ruby.  And of course each domain then can have it's own = homepage suitued towards its general audience.  Of course, I would = hope these are all on the same server and are just virtual hosts.  = I also think the general look and feel should be consistent = throughout.
