FYI,

I ported Ruby, as well as the gtk2 and glade2 bindings to  
my Neo1973 phone running the OpenMoko platform which is in turn  
based on the OpenEmbedded platform. So this is ruby running  
on arm-linux-gnueabi.

Info and packages on:

Screenshot of simple ruby+glade app:

(the neo has a 480x640 screen at 283 DPI so this screenshot  
seems bigger than it is 🙂

Bye,  
Kero.

This just made my day. I’ve been waiting for the consumer OpenMoko  
handset to be available so I can play around with it. Thank you!
