I am, as I’m sure many others are, anxiously awaiting Ruby 2.0 + YARV. I  
use Ruby professionally and I have been successful in bringing Ruby into  
what was once an all .NET shop.

So I’m wondering if there is a way to donate money to the development of  
Ruby 2.0 and/or YARV. After searching around I haven’t found anything so  
I’m assuming that money isn’t the driving factor for development. If  
there is a way to donate, how do I do it? If there are other ways that  
someone can help please let me know.

Thanks,  
John
