Hi,

I just want to let you know some facts before I ask you "The question" :
- my xcb ruby module is not official (for fun I said in my first message)
- I can say that my module, for now cover ~95% of the xcb-core and some 
extensions.
- my module is based on swig 2.0.
- I am not a professional developer.

The question:

do you plan to modify rcairo in order to provide some methods to create 
CairoSurface class?

If no, if I am able to create the xcb related methods that can be used 
with my xcb module, will you push them in rcairo or should I have to 
fork you rcairo and work on my side.
