>From what I can tell, there's not binary gem for Ruby/GSL on Windows. I've been wondering if we should start a Shoes-specific gem repo. Kind of like how Ubuntu has its own set of packages, seperate from Debian. The goal would be to organize patches and improvements for Shoes users beyond what the normal Gem authors are doing. I actually think if we had dedicated package maintainers, it could benefit a lot of Rubyists out there, even those who don't use Shoes. In Ruby/GSL's case, we'd make a gem from the stuff in NumRu and put it up on shoooes.net. _why
