i have no idea either why you are moved make this comment, or why you are making it here. rubinius needed a test suite to ensure that they were compliant with a language whose 'spec' consisted of the mri implementation. they decided to do so in a way that would be useful for everybody, and started what is now the rubyspec project.

both rubyspec and rubinius are alive and well, so there's really nothing that has "broken on the shoals of reality" or would justify your evident schadenfreude at the prospect.
