I will manage my own CVS at  http://sourceforge.jp/projects/wxruby for a
while.
I will make the initial wxRuby version.

I agree with you.
But I don't want to manage the whole wxRuby project.
I won't be able to do documentation and porting to other platforms.
Are there anybody who is willing to debug ,document or porting?
