Rouwam: An Ambitious Project

If I understand correctly, <i>Ruby our universe with algo's and math's</i> (Rouwam) tries to bundle all algorithms obtained from Wikipedia as a Ruby package.<p>I'm unsure about the handiness of that, given that I usually do not struggle do find a working implementation of an algorithm (think Rosettacode <a href="http://rosettacode.org/wiki/Main_Page" rel="nofollow">http://rosettacode.org/wiki/Main_Page</a>) but rather <i>which</i> algorithm I actually want to use. I appreciate Python's standard library largely hiding the implementation details from me but rather concentrating on <i>use cases.</i><p>Edited to clarify: the <i>list</i> of algorithms is fetched from Wikipedia. I <i>think</i> he wants to publish his algorithms in Wikipedia, not sure abut that though.

"RubyForge Could Not Connect to Database:"<p>Too ambitious, perhaps?
