I was about to reply to this thread myself and mention that I'm days  
away from the first release of Redleaf (I'm the author), but imagine  
my dismay at finding that it's "off-grid"! I can't imagine what about  
hosting your own project site could be construed this way, but perhaps  
I'm thinking of the wrong "grid". :)

Once it's actually released (any day now, I swear), it will be  
gemified via the 'deveiate' project on RubyForge (http://rubyforge.org/projects/deveiate/ 
) with all my other gems. It's mostly code-complete at this point, but  
the manual is a bit spotty in places. As soon as I can get the last  
few examples running and the major sections at least outlined, I'll  
release 0.0.1.

In the meantime, feel free to check out the latest source (with  
Mercurial) like so:

   hg clone http://repo.deveiate.org/Redleaf

As a small example of how it may be used, I ported Dan Brickley's  
"skosdex" example posted to this list a few months ago:

   http://deveiate.org/projects/Redleaf/browser/examples/redleaf_skos.rb

I'd welcome any comments, suggestions, and feature requests you'd care  
to give, especially in the form of patches. Thanks!
