If you want to deploy easily, then you can include the needed files in the same 
directory as the DLL. Every programming system I have ever used requires setup, 
it's not hard to script setting up ENV variables and copying files. We do this 
kind of thing on 20+ machines for testing for IronRuby and IronPython. Using 
the installer does install to a common location, %ProgramFiles%.

The problem is that every person has their own IronRuby folder. It has to work 
same for everyone. Kind of like libraries in GAC.

You are NOT thinking throughly about the problem!

This is not regarding putting the path in ENV variables and copying couple of 
files. This is about doing the same thing for 10 servers. I don't think you 
will be comfortable doing the same for 10 servers.

This also adds extra work for writing build scripts that will do this work.

Maybe the IronRuby installation should add the IronRuby folder to a common path 
which is same for all the machines. Kind of like when installing the .NET 
framework which is usually on a common place.
