There's one thing missing from Ruby: a standard way for parsing Ruby code ... _in Ruby_. There is no Ruby parser written in Ruby, and all the other Ruby parsers have very different outputs and are heavily implementation specific. Problem: this causes tons of Ruby code manipulation code written in languages like Java or C++... and not Ruby. This article shows the problem in detail, why it's important and possible solutions.
