Hi,

First of all I think MacRuby is amazing project, and one and only Ruby 
runtime/compiler (macrubyc) that is able to produce standalone self-contained 
binaries. Since I have used Ruby heavily to produce server-side applications 
rather than Cocoa based application and I am iPhone developer as well, I wish 
to ask if and what are the plans for extending MacRuby to other platforms like:

(1) iOS - here I know the basic problem is lack of Obj-C GC. I've seen some 
post you're working on it, any clues about that?

(2) any UNIX (POSIX) platforms (Linux servers) - most of tech MacRuby relays on 
is OpenSource including LLVM, Obj-C runtime... most except Foundation framework 
is closed-source and exists only on OSX, however there's CFLite and there were 
couple of tries to port Foundation to generic UNIX (POSIX), one of them is 
PureFoundation.

Do you guys considered stripped down MacRuby version for any POSIX OS where 
Array, String and some core classes use some alternative implementation of 
Foundation or Foundation-free implementation?
