The ruby project for Gentoo is currently understaffed so we are hesitant to take on new packages. Could you explain why you think it is important to add this particular package? Could you also explain the relation with the current ncurses-ruby package? 

Also, we try to stay as close to upstream naming as possible these days, so ncursesw would be a better name. Other than that the ebuild looks fine to me.
