I'm the current maintainer for the rubygem-wirble package. Unfortunately, it seems that wirble has been abandoned by the developers. So I've forked the code and named it Dirby [1]. I'm inviting anybody who's interested to join me in getting it fixed up and working better for Ruby 1.9, as well as to enhance the codebase.

Did you contact originals developers? Can you simply take over rubygem-wirble and develop it under its original name?

I had tried contacting him (Paul Duncan) a long time back and never got a response from him. Since that makes things a little murky IMO for just taking over the codebase. So I figure it's easier to just start a new project and incorporate some of the better features they had in Wirble and continue our own way.
