It would be fine with us for you to use that code under Ruby's license.  =
Thanks for asking!

If you could attribute it to us, that would be great as well.  (If such =
attribution is awkward or inappropriate in your environment - that is OK =
too.)

We may, but haven't yet, release the entire program under a more liberal =
license in the future.  We chose GPL for the initial releases largely =
because it was familiar to us and seemed acceptable for the time being.

Please keep all of us posted on how your article and implementation are =
going - maybe we can collaborate more closely as things progress!

Ben Schroeder
