We just pushed the latest codebase to the site including the following
features:

- RPMs / Gems are now referenced by their name in the url, no need to
remember the associated id:

http://isitfedoraruby.com/fedorarpms/rubygem-activesupport


- d3.js is used to render dependency and dependent packages:

http://isitfedoraruby.com/fedorarpms/rubygem-actionmailer/full_deps   
(tree is clickable)


- tool to compare an uploaded Gemfile / Gemfile.lock against Fedora:

http://isitfedoraruby.com/stats/gemfile_tool


- many ui improvements including sortable columns, Fedora / Ruby stats
on the homepage, and more!


As always, feedback and patches are more than welcome,
