What does "via Ruby" mean here? Title should probably not include that.

I think it's related to the fact that they're actually announcing two projects:

* rumm, a CLI for managing Rackspace Cloud. * MVCLI, a Ruby framework for writing CLI apps (on which rumm is built).

It's a bit confusing how the rumm website is pushing both projects, whence I assume the title confusion derives.

I think it means it's a ruby gem you install to manage your cloud environment. Technically you would be using a ruby gem via the command line. I suppose it could just say "via command line" but I don't see it as incorrect in its current state.
You're right - they announced it at LoneStarRuby Conf, and I'm at the conference, so I have Ruby on the mind :-)
