Where can people get involved in following ruby’s development, and/or  
contribute patches.  
There are no links from the ruby homepage, and the only mailing list,  
ruby-dev, is all japanese:

You can join the ruby-core mailing list (same admin setup up as this  
one, I believe), and also have a look at http;[//www.rcrchive.net](https://www.rcrchive.net),  
which is the site where proposed changes to Ruby (from the general  
population, not core developers specifically) are discussed and  
examined by Matz.
