I wish Ruby wasn't run by Matz and his team. The number of improvements they can offer is just too little. And they don't do well to get and include feedback from others. It's true that they've been working on Ruby for a long time, and they deserve credit. But it's time for Ruby to grow past Matz and his team.
If Ruby can offer:
- real threads
- great performance
Then the conversation about Ruby would be about the right things - do you like the syntax, the feel, would it work for your team, etc. We wouldn't be bickering about "performance" all the time.
