I have observed the most interest in code analysis tools, which obviously require constructing and analyzing an AST even if you don't manipulate it. Heckle obviously manipulated things. And I recall another syntactic meta-programming project, I think it used its own lisp-like sexprs. But perhaps I am ignorant of a lot of progress in this area. Which other projects/gems/plugins have you seen?

"Which other projects/gems/plugins have you seen?" Ah, well there's the catch. I've seen interest and enthusiasm, but so far little code to implement things. Basically, people who would love to see Ruby have more Lisp-like powers, but not inclined to go hacking on it and making it happen.
