Hi, We have been speaking earlier about adding some support for JRuby-specific extensions to RubyGems. One small feature that would be very welcome for us would be to make it possible to require jar-files in the regular load-path. We have added support for JRuby such that executing require 'bin_ext' will search for bin_ext.rb and bin_ext.jar on the load path. If the same would be possible with gems, it would mean we can package extensions and people can use them the same way .so-extensions are used.
