Maybe this is a tangent, but: I don't have a strong opinion about what
to use for a cross-platform GUI toolkit, but I do remember at RubyConf
last year that David Black was talking about setting up a non-profit
for Ruby stuff. I don't know anything about the progress of that--I
work at a non-profit and can tell you that sometimes it involves a
_lot_ of paperwork--but I can say one of the great things about having
a non-profit to administer things such as funding Moz-Ruby integration
is that donations to such a non-profit are tax-deductible.

On the other hand, such a structure might prove to be more cumbersome
than it's worth ...
