Ruby libcurl maintainer?

Ruby

I tried to contact Mr Hirotaka Matsuyuki,however his email address
seems to be invalid. If someone knows the proper address would you
mind to let me know?

I’ve tried the libcurl bindings from him in both forms from
http://www.d1.dion.ne.jp/~matuyuki/ruby.html

and from
http://rox-ruby.sourceforge.net/cms.php/curl

both have some problems, I’d like to report to him.

Regards
Friedrich

I tried to contact him earlier this year, but to no avail - I think the
project has been dormant for quite a while. I posted about it here at
the time. [1]

I made some updates to this version to get it to work with Ruby 1.8 and
GCC 4. When I couldn’t get any response with the patch, I posted up a
patched copy on my site [2]. IIRC it worked quite well.
