Rubinius runs Rails!

Last night, the Rubinius team reached a major milestone!

Rubinius can now start Rails and serve static and dynamic requests.

This is one of the primary tests of a Ruby implementation, because the Rails code base is large and complex and uses many complex Ruby language features.

Congrats to the Rubinius core team at Engine Yard, and to each and every one of the over 150 Rubinius project contributors.
