  Good. I've written a first draft of a Ruby policy, which is
basically my interpretation of the whole gem2deb philosophy. I
encourage everyone to read it and point me where you think I have
misunderstood (on this list) or correct it themselves.

  The document is almost complete in the sense that I think I have
covered most of the requirements. A big exception though: I haven't
addressed at all the requirements for Ruby interpreters, which I think
should be part of the policy.

  The document is located in the gem2deb git repository. It is a
docbook document, which is fairly easy to read/write. Install the
package docbook-utils to convert to other formats (PDF, HTML, etc...).

  Cheers,

      Vincent
