Announcing the rGenetic project (http://rubyforge.org/projects/rgenetic/) at 
RubyForge.

Desc:

rGenetic is a genetic algorithm package for Ruby. The idea is to develop a 
package which is easily customizable, allowing simple integration into a 
problem require genetic algorithms or evolutionary programming. The suite 
will be developed and tested against traditional GA problems as a proof of 
concept. I am aware of Ruby/GA in SourceForge, which, from my understanding 
has similar goals. However, last I checked, it's documentation and support 
are in japanese. Beyond that, I feel that having more than one package with 
similar goals only strengthens the library support for Ruby. I will 
specifically develop rGenetic without examination of Ruby/GA, in order to 
develop a unique solution which will hopefully compliment the Ruby/GA 
project.

Anyone who is interested, hop on over.  The project just entered pre-Alpha.  
I've got some documentation up if you want to take a gander.

cheers!

Matt
