Is Ruby gaining popularity in the library world? A few months ago I
started developing a MARC4J implementation in Ruby. MARC4J is a library
for working with MARC and MARC XML data in Java. I do not have a direct
need for such a program, but I was just wondering how difficult it would
be to create a MARC parser in Ruby. Is there any interest in such a
library for Ruby?

Check http://marc4j.tigris.org for more information about MARC4J. You
can find the Ruby project here: http://rubyforge.org/projects/rmarc/.
