The packaging of this will be a small exercise:

gem 'data_mapper'
gem 'dm-serializer'
gem 'dm-constraints'
gem 'dm-sqlite-adapter'
gem 'resque'
gem 'resque-scheduler'
gem 'time-ago-in-words', :require => 'time-ago-in-words'

This stuff will need to be packaged, but I don't see any blocker here.
App itself can be packaged as Deltacloud API 
(/usr/share/deltacloud-core) and integrated with Gnome (launchers, 
extensions, etc).

Unfortunately I don't have too much spare time to work on this :/
So if we find someone else to help us that will be awesome.
