Is there a HttpCache for Ruby?

I'm looking for a HttpCache class with similiar functionality to
python's httpcache.py, i.e. something that caches HTTP responses and
avoids retrieving files that haven't changed since the last request:
http://bitworking.org/news/76

Is there anything out there? I couldn't find anything via 'gem query
-r'

I've not found anything, though I've not looked that hard.

I would love to help write or test something, though! It's a very
useful thing for me.

Since I haven't found an existing HttpCache for Ruby, I'm starting to
write one. Ari, hopefully I'll have a httpcache Ruby gem for you test
by the weekend.
