If. All languages you listed need GC, which won't be in the initial version of WebAssembly. In other words, you won't be able to compile Ruby to WebAssembly any

If. All languages you listed need GC, which won't be in the initial version of WebAssembly. In other words, you won't be able to compile Ruby to WebAssembly any time soon.
You will be able to compile Ruby implementation to WebAssembly, but you can already compile that to asm.js. That is different from compiling Ruby to WebAssembly.
