Current evaluation

External contributor's early Ruby plugin PR was closed as inactive by kyrofa (2017-06-14) after no follow-up since March; no merge, tests, or review. Ruby support later landed separately.

Resolution: closed stale

Reason: Maintainer kyrofa closed the PR on 2017-06-14 explicitly "Closing due to inactivity. Please reopen when you're ready to continue", after come-maiz asked for integration tests in March and justincan's April update was the last activity. The diff (+71 lines, 1 file) was never merged; Ruby support eventually shipped via commit 4f87398b0 "ruby plugin: new plugin" plus a separate test PR.
