It was such a spam-trap that we shut it down.

Is the content, spam-laden or otherwise, still available somewhere?
I'd happily volunteer to compile a static version... there was too
much good stuff there to lose it forever.

I poked around various directories on the new rubycentral.org server... I don't see any trace of it. I'll ask Chad if he knows of a backup anywhere... but I think it was such a mess (e.g., GB upon GB of spam revisions mixed in with the good bits) that I didn't migrate it over... now I'm wishing I had, of course...

I wrote most of DRbTutorial, and was sad to see it vanish. It's
sometimes possible to retrieve it from archive.org, but it's a painful
process. I finally got it here:

Nice. I've been fleshing out some tutorials on the ruby wikibook:
http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Ruby_Programming
Does that seem like a good idea to use as a replacement?

Feel free - you have a "standard library" section already.
