Roy Hayun presented his "JRuby on ME" talk this past JavaOne and got a
pretty solid response. He ported a pre-1.0 JRuby to CDC by incrementally
stripping out libraries and functionality that couldn't be supported. He
succeeded, and yesterday delivered to us a buildable version of his
JRubME 0.1 (that name was a typo on his original JavaOne
submission...but the missing 'y' produced a comically good name).
In the JRuby download "research" area, you can find the results of his
work plus some docs and a short presentation on JRubyME. As near as I
can tell he based it on JRuby 0.9.8. The same work could probably be
done to produce a stripped version of current JRuby, and with a bit more
work we could probably tweak and reconfigure the source to support ME
execution as a normal build target. Both are exercises for you all until
there's more time (or Ruby on ME becomes a primary goal rather than
performance and compatibility on SE :) )

There you go! You wanted JRuby on ME, now you have a damn good start!
Run with it!
