[TxMt] Enhancing the Ruby Bundle

[Sebastian Friedrich]

I'd personally be very interested. I just started doing a few simple  
but much needed additions to the bundle as well (like folding blocks  
for conditionals, do's etc.), but i'd rather save the time if  
somebody already added the things that are needed. I think the  
current bundle is great in terms of lowest-common denominator, and as  
such it may be that people are opposed to expanding it to the point  
where it becomes a matter of taste and style. But i guess you could  
talk to the maintainer (who?) and see if he might be open to any of  
your additions. In any case, I (and surely others) would love to take  
a look at your enhanced bundle. @everybody, Is there a place where to  
upload alternative bundles?
