There appears to be an extensive library of interesting ruby functions  
which  
show up on ruby gems but I can’t download the gem, nor can I find  
anything  
on the web. It seems odd that they’d completely pull the project (at  
version 1.2). Anybody know anything about this?

IIRC it evolved into Facets.

Actually, I don’t see anything about the Calibre project in Facet’s  
history,  
but this has what I’m looking for 🙂
