I doubt it, given that Ruby has virtually no traction in NLP circles. That's also why all the good toolkits target other languages.

However, "translating" Python examples into relatively idiomatic Ruby shouldn't too much of a problem if you really want to go down that path.

Really good point -- thanks for that.
