What emacs<->ruby bridge lib to use?

Hi list,

Being a Ruby programmer, and knowing that elisp is not very suitable for a
lot of stuff that Ruby can do better (such as web development), the
Ruby<->elisp bridges provide for a very powerful way to take advantage of
both languages/platforms for interesting applications.

I've been playing with relisp, and it looks good. There wasn't any github
mirror, so I created one here: https://github.com/fullofcaffeine/relisp.
I've been playing with it and it seems to work very well (I've called a
Ruby script from emacs that returns a hash and converts this Ruby hash to
elisp, and also called elisp directly from a Rails app, and parsed the text
output).

Recently, I found out about about el4r (
http://www.rubyist.net/~rubikitch/computer/el4r/index.en.html), but this
one seems pretty outdated.

I've also found this one https://rubyforge.org/projects/rel/.

Relisp seems to work well though, but knowing about the others would be
nice. I don't have much time to try all of them out, so if anyone out there
knows something about el4r and rel and could share, I'd be very grateful.

Cheers,

- Marcelo.
