Topic: isitruby19.com / API is added

Maybe add an API to submit installed gems so we have some metric and the most important ones?

Topic: isitruby19.com / JRuby gems?

This is a can of worms. You might need to add 64/32bit and linux distro and jdk vendor version etc etc . Plus all the gems that have c extensions and no java extensions.

Even pure ruby gems can break due to some stufff not implemented in Jruby due to issue in the stack further up …. been there. Nightmare…

Having said all that, some documentation on the whole mess might be nice.

Topic: isitruby19.com / using gauntlet to test all gems

Is there a reason that you arent using gauntlet and autotest etc to automatically test all gems ?

BTW as for the comment about how good the automatic tests are, you could use the code metrics zenspider has done to come up with some weighting. Are there metrics for gem usage?
