Subject: plruby in PG distribution

I am wondering why plruby has not been included with the PostgreSQL 
distribution. It has been around for quite a while. Is there a license 
compatibility problem or a cold response from the PG development team? I 
myself find plruby to be quite interesting, especially since plpython 
has become "plpythonu" in 7.4 and plperl still can't be used for 
triggers. I believe that for most people, Ruby should be the next best 
choice when Perl and Python is not available.

Or isn't there anyone using plruby? I thought that Japanese users 
especially should be the potential users since Ruby is more popular 
there than Python. Also PG is not threaded at the moment so no problem 
with Ruby's lack of OS threads. Also as a side note, Bruce Momjian is 
currently being employed by a Japanese company...
