Calling all ruby enthusiasts

[clutton]

I've done a ruby-doc-stdlib port, but it doesn't fit for the pr.
The pr patch is limited to 100K.

Any suggestions which service for patch store should I use?
I don't have any http box right now which is available from outside.

I was trying to create a single doc-stdlib port for all Ruby versions.
But managing plist and distfiles depend on RUBY_VER became so cumbersome
that I gave up.
