I appreciate the entrance it provides into Cocoa without having to sign up for Objective-C.  But where does it fit within Apple's longer term view ?   Is MacRuby about to be Orphaned ?  It seems like something happened around march 2011.    What are the groups within Apple that hate MacRuby and want to kill it as a threat to Objective-C ?  I am loath to invest a lot of time and coding in something that is a dead-end.  Would love to hear insights from anyone with better insight.
