I've looked at writing something like Pyd for Ruby, but I don't have the 
patience to write bindings for the Ruby API. (Deja Augustine and David 
Rushby had already done most of the work behind writing the Python/C API 
bindings before I started Pyd.) The Ruby API is also more poorly 
documented than the Python API. Finally, I just don't know Ruby that 
well. :-)

I fully believe that the "hard bits" of Pyd would translate well to 
pretty much any other scripting language. Someone just needs to do it. :-)
