Looking on Ruby-talk archives I see that someone is willing to offer a 
reward for doing the C-work needed to allow Mozilla to be scripted from 
Ruby (I'm not sure why that article isn't showing up on my newsfeed, btw).
No details on how much money being offered...

If there were some way to script Mozilla with Ruby & XUL I could use it 
right now for a project at work.

How much work is involved?  Anyone have any idea?
