Current status is that almost all the builds are done and in the proper
location.  There are a few stragglers, and you may have identified one.
 The effort was put on hold as we get Fedora 14 ready for release.
Anything in F14 GA that could be effected will see a post-release update.

As for ruby-gnome2, the build you have in updates-testing, if it goes
stable, will suffice.
