I've a feeling that the formation of a new Japanese legal entity by Github is due to legal hurdles in doing business in Japan. I used to work for a firm earlier which had created a Japanese legal entity for this purpose.
Should Github Hire Matz then? And many other Japanese Ruby Core team to speed up the development of Ruby ( as a language ) and CRuby / RuJIT ( as the Compiler )<p>The Ruby VM really need some spanking.
