Vincenzo,

There was work on HotCocoa at least as recently as Jan 11, 2011, I think.

Here is the github graph of changes:

As of today (3/24/2011), this is the most recent list of committers (I think):

Last change in the wiki was 10 months ago (6/10/2010):

Unfortunately, I think it is an effort off to the side of the macruby team and core developers that hasn't gotten much attention. I know many (including myself) would like to see it succeed though. It was a lot of fun to work with for the few days that I did, and fun toys that you can create cool things with quickly can often do really well. The main problems I think have been the lack of attention, lack of development, and the large size of the produced application, at least in earlier versions.

Hello all,
  I discovered macruby since a few weeks and I'm really enthusiast.
I begun playing with it and really like the hotcocoa approach, but it seems stopped since more than a year, is it still maintained ?

Anyway, I think I found a bug in the hotcocoa canvas part: the text method draws at a very big size regardless of the chosen font. The problem is that the transformation matrix for the text is not set.

Here is the fix if anyone needs it:

module HotCocoa::Graphics
  class Canvas
    def text(txt="A", x=0, y=0)
      affine = CGContextGetCTM(@ctx)
      CGContextSetTextMatrix (@ctx, affine);
      txt = txt.to_s unless txt.kind_of?(String)
      if @registration == :center
        width = textwidth(txt)
        x = x - width / 2
        y = y + @fsize / 2
      end
      CGContextShowTextAtPoint(@ctx, x, y, txt, txt.length)
    end
  end
end
