Well, JRuby is Ruby interpreter and in theory can run whatever Ruby code available in Fedora. And better integration with other Ruby packages in Fedora was always the plan. However, the problem of JRuby is that it is written in Java and I don't have enough expertise, together with different priorities, to properly maintain the package. Given this, the situation around java and another dependency (properties-maven-plugin) which is currently orphaned, it is probably time to orphan/retire the package from Fedora .... Of course any volunteers who could help are welcome.
