isitfedoraduby is a nice project that never got the attention it deserved. I believe this was because it served merely as a portal of the gems packaged for Fedora, showing their statuses and some nice statistics and graphs.
Being a packager myself for almost a year now, I am familiar with the difficulties one has to overcome in order to package a gem. This idea aims to facilitate the packaging process and promote the site among Fedora ruby packagers.

Proposal

isitfedoraruby.com is a web-application built with Ruby on Rails, that keeps track of the Fedora/Ruby integration, especially gem -> rpm conversion.

The project was started on 2012 as a Google Summer Of Code project by User:Zuhao and later were added some new features during the Google Code In program. This is my idea of enhancing it from a packager's point of view.
