Hi,

I released rb2c-0.6.0.

`rb2c' is a Ruby-to-C converter. As a result of conversion, 

 * You can get scripts run a little bit faster.
 * Compile and link, and you'll get a human-unreadable binary.

On the other hand, 

 * You can't help doubting that it runs really same as Ruby interpreter :-( 


You can use/modify/redistribute it under the same terms of Ruby (it's
less restrictive than GPL).  Enjoy it.
