Dear ZNG
This is to announce the beta release of cql-ruby, a ruby gem that 
implements a CQL parser.  It is based on a translation of Mike Taylor's  
CQL-Java parser minus the PQF stuff.  In its stead I have implemented 
the barest bones SOLR serialization of the CQL tree, which is what I 
needed.  The project site is http://cql-ruby.rubyforge.org/  I am not 
sure who needs this other than I but hopefully it will save someone some 
time somewhere down the road.

I still fantasize about producing an acts_as_sru plugin, that would 
allow a developer with a website using solr for the indexing to add sru 
support with one line of code.  Not vary hard in general, though a 
little problematic in my case (www.dlfaquifer.org) where we use only 
pieces of the acts_as_solr.
Enjoy
