I don't use Rails. I see the JVM as a tool that gives me access to code I might find useful, and web-servers that are (IMO) 1000X superior to anything available to MRI. That and much better performance than REE anyways.
If you need C-extensions, well, there you go. Rubinius as a better MRI I totally get/agree with.
I think we agree on that as a good reason for the season for Rubinius.
It'd just be nice for EY to put up a "Why Rubinius?" page. And further, a "Which VM best targets my project? JRuby or Rubinius?" page would make me very happy. I can't imagine it could hurt the adoption of either.
