Yes.  I have a version of RubyFit that works with FitNesse.  We are
using FitNesse at the cincinnati XP users group to specify the user
acceptance tests for our project.  Some people are using Java and some
(i.e. me and whoever I can get to pair with me) are using Ruby.  So the
same tests can be driven by both Java and Ruby.

Unfortunately, Dave's version of Fit wasn't available at the time, so I
did my own port of Ward's software.  I can't imagine that the two
versions are very different (since they are both ports of the Java
version).

I plan to post what I have in the next week or two.
