OpenSSL and nokogiri already work pretty well. ActiveRecord works providing you have a database driver and I’ve got a rough set of patches for pg that I’m working on right now.

I’m working on Discourse at the moment and can run the dB create and migrate tasks and I’m working on the asset compilation pipeline, but it’s all pretty rough and won’t be our final solution.

That sounds promising. I think it's important to keep community in loop and make sure people are aware of limitations and what's already possible and supported.
Just wondering if any Discourse or Rails Core people involved to get it working?
Not at the moment. I'm mostly doing some ugly hacks to get stuff working and generating a list of bugs for things we need to fix properly. Looking at my branch I think there's one small change that we will want to do PR for in the end, and some dependencies that we may want to make platform dependent (though they recently did change a couple for JRuby, which also helps us). Pretty much everything else I hope to back out when we've fixed a few of the root causes.
