Bug#95111: ITP: metaruby - reimplementations of some ruby parts in ruby

[akira yamada / やまだあきら <akira@debian.org>]

Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist

I intent to package metaruby.  MetaRuby reimplementations of some ruby
parts in ruby, equivalent of Perl's tie command.

Purpose of MetaRuby (from Overview file):

  1. To describe a minimal but reasonably efficient interface for
     interacting with Array-like objects.

  2. To implement a set of default replacements for methods provided
     in Array but not in the Array interface.

  3. In short this can be seen as equivalent to Perl's tie.

  4. This is also can be seen as a small part of an upcoming
     Ruby-in-Ruby. I am not aware of anyone who is seriously involved
     in that sort of thing, but who knows.
