This summer Google will fund a student to work on Ruby parser wiht ANTLR:
http://www.infoq.com/news/2007/04/gsoc-series-wang-haofei

We will try our best to provide an
easy-to-maintain parser so that people can build better tools above it.

I am very interested in running ruby on strongtalk and will do more research
on it.
