[lucy-dev] CFC Ruby bindings

Greets,

Logan has expressed an interest in helping Lucy along towards Ruby bindings,
so I'm going to be prioritizing work on that for a little while.

This issue is pretty far along:

    https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCY-142
    Port Clownfish compiler to C

Everything that Ruby will need has been ported to C and is in src.  (The test
cases have not been ported, but they are not mandatory.) There is just a
little bit of Perl C API code hanging on, and I will purge that over the next
couple of days.

At that point, it will be possible to write a Rakefile which compiles
everything in clownfish/src, with the goal of build a multi-module Ruby
extension for CFC which is the analogue to the current suite of Perl modules.
