Rite is still pure Vapourware. So it may still take years to see the
first beta. Who knows what happens to Vapourware in years ?

But i think the API won't change to much. Simply because ruby depends
on it heavily and rewriting the complete ruby core is far beyond the
amount of free time that matz have.
