Many rubyists want to extend RAA (Aleksi is the first
person who act it out.  RAA section in Ruby Mine is
very useful.  Thanks, Aleksi).  Dave et al. plans to
build new RAA.  Some Japanese claims an up-to-date
information of RAA via dRuby or XML.

As a Web Service(TM), dRuby seems too insecure to this
purpose.  I can setup a SOAP/HTTP-CGI server if Matz
permit but it sticks someone's throat. :)  (I am a
member of webmaster / ruby-lang.org at this time.)
SSL/TLS based HTTP can not be accepted to us for
monetary and administratively reason (Who gets Server
ID for our website?).

Thoughts?
