So *you* are the one we need to thank for this use of Org within 
github?  Thanks :)

I don't speak ruby and can't help here.  

The first thing is to advertize org-ruby here:
http://orgmode.org/worg/org-tools/index.html

Can you provide a patch against this org file?
http://repo.or.cz/w/Worg.git/blob_plain/HEAD:/org-tools/index.org

Make it clear that org-ruby is looking for a maintainer.

Thanks,
