[MacRuby-devel] ruby gems just for MacRuby

[Eloy Duran]

Ah gotcha.

What we could maybe do is add these kind of gems to the MacRuby user  
that we will create on GitHub in the near future.
The gem name would then be prefixed with MacRuby, eg: MacRuby-JSON.

It's of course not a real solution like a platform, but it's pretty  
self-explanatory imo.
