    Would it make sense to ask the developers whether they'd consider an
    assignment to the FSF so that we could support Ruby out of the box?

Please ask them if you wish.  But we should also look for an Emacs expert
who understands what a good programming language mode should do,
and also knows and uses Ruby, to comment for us on how well that mode
meets its expectations.
