I've heard tell there is a framework, and I'm pretty sure it was
partially presented at RubyConf 2003, but I dunno where the code is.
Maybe some of the blogs that covered the conference have more info?

I am the author of this library on RubyForge:

http://rubyforge.org/projects/lego-mindstorms/

It requires DRb and works only on RCX 2.0 (USB Port interface).
(Although it can be easily modified to not use DRb).

Give it a whirl and please let me know how it goes.
