Wait for what, precisely?

I'm a "release early and often" kinda guy.

At the present time, the Ruby version passes pretty much the identical 
set of test cases as the Python version (in fact, the Ruby version has 
more sanitize tests, something I plan to backport to the Python version 
tomorrow).

So to all the people who are creating new function (like error messages 
on out of place li's and whitespace filters) without creating test 
cases, shame on you.  :-P

Oh, and by the way, if other language ports start showing up here (C#, 
PHP, Java, whatever), I would help keep these implementations in sync 
too.  I know that Thomas Broyer would prefer that the implementations be 
kept separate, but my feeling is that anything we can do to increase the 
size of the development community, the higher the quality of all of the 
implementations will be.
