  Hello,

  I've finished preparing the ruby-full packages, which now states:

Package: ruby-full
Architecture: all
Depends: ruby, irb, rdoc, ri, libdbm-ruby, libgdbm-ruby,
 libreadline-ruby, libopenssl-ruby, ruby-elisp
Recommends: libtcltk-ruby
Description: Ruby full installation
 For many good reasons, the Ruby programming language is split in many
 small different packages. Installing this package will make sure you have
 all the packages that add up to a full Ruby installation, with the
exception
 of the Tcl/Tk bindings for Ruby which are only recommended.
 .
 This package installs the dependencies for the current stable
 version of Ruby, which is 1.8.

  I believe it would be a great help to many debian ruby newbies, as
well as a handy package for more experienced users. If anyone has some
objections or ideas, please state them !

  What I just need now is a sponsor, as I'm not a DD (yet). I also need
to talk to the release managers, but I might get them to accept it.
Would anyone want to upload this package (just please don't do it before
I write to the release managers, though).

  Thanks,

	Vincent
