Not really. We said that Ruby code can be run on the JVM, and later ported to the Ruby runtime (or to IronRuby) if that becomes necessary.
It was also stated that, for Scala in particular, there are development environments and build tools available that aren't tied to the JVM. For languages that cross-compile to CLR, there are also projects such as ja.NET (http://www.janetdev.org/) that can provide Java core libraries on that platform, as well as help porting 3rd-party Java libraries. Porting 3rd-party Scala frameworks should be as simple as recompiling.
