What will help org-ruby (and github's support of org files) is to
stabilize the syntax of .org files as much as possible. We are
currently working in this direction.
org-ruby's main job is to convert .org files into HTML or textile files.

As I understand it, iOrg will convert .org files to HTML using the
internal Org's HTML exporter. I don't see how github could use such
a setup to produce HTML files from Org (unless github runs an Emacs
batch query for exporting HTML... which seems very unlikely - and
wrong by design anyway.
Let's see how iOrg evolves but let's stick to the bugpile for now.
If the list can specifically help about org-ruby issues, let's help!
All best,
