Hi,

For this week’s Ruby quiz, I ported xoxo.py and the result is:

= xoxo.rb, a XOXO parser and generator for Ruby

== What is xoxo.rb?

xoxo.rb is a Ruby library for loading and dumping data as  
XOXO[[http://microformats.org/wiki/xoxo](http://microformats.org/wiki/xoxo)], an simple, open outline  
format written in standard XHTML and suitable for embedding in  
(X)HTML, Atom, RSS, and arbitrary XML.

xoxo.rb is a straight port of the functionality of  
xoxo.py[[xoxo-sample-code - Microformats Wiki](http://microformats.org/wiki/xoxo-sample-code#Python)], but  
with an API more similar to Marshal and YAML.

== Current limitations

- No special support for encodings other than UTF-8. Especially note  
that http-equiv headers are not respected.

- XOXO.dump only can dump these Ruby core classes:
