[MacRuby-devel] Supported classes & methods diagram fed from rubyspec

[Eloy Duran]

That looks great indeed Ben, much better than what my investigation in

It would be great if we'd have a osx machine that would automatically  
run the suite at night and generate this from it. Any idea if that  
would become a possibility in the near future Laurent?
