That is a good point. However in this case, it was CMD that worked with 
the Author to change the license, specifically for this case. I don't 
think the author really had any intent of submitting it until we 
approached him.
From a personal perspective, I do not care if we include PL/Ruby. I 
don't use Ruby. I am a Python guy. However I know a lot of Ruby folk 
that use PostgreSQL. This would be a good way to improve the native Ruby 
support for PostgreSQL.
