One other thing: rubyist is not original in a domain name.
http://www.rubyist.net/~matz is Matz' blog. It's not bad to follow a
pattern in domain names. And besides, it gets us a little bit on par
with Matz  ;-) 

Sorry if I come off strongly in favor of my own suggestion, but it fits
pretty much every requirement I have for a domain name:
* short, to the point
* Ruby, not BRUG, so we can create subdomains to our liking (like
rails.rubyist.net  ;-) 
* I find names like ruby-be.org confusing and harder to remember. If you
want be or Belgium in it, put it at the end, period.
* has some precedent
* personally, I like the ring of "Rubyist"
