Hi all, This is Dr. Ernie, one of the MacRuby committers. We would like to add the FFI specs <http://github.com/ffi/ffi/tree/master/spec/ffi/> to our existing RubySpec tests. When I asked on the rubyspec list about what could be done to "mainstream" FFI, I was told: On Dec 4, 2009, at 2:51 PM, Brian Ford wrote:
The specs need quite a bit of cleanup to conform to the rubyspec style guide.

Also, the API is still in flux a bit. If you'd like to contribute to the specs or FFI API, please coordinate with Evan Phoenix (evan in #rubinius on freenode.net) as he is the original API author and is trying to get the API standardized across implementations.
Evan, are you here? What process would you suggest? Should I file a bug about the specs (on Kenai)? Or should I wait until the API stabilizes a bit more? -- Ernie P.
