ruby coding guidelines?

Is there in the Ruby community anything like "ruby coding convention"?

Google returns two interesting links:
- http://pub.cozmixng.org/~the-rwiki/rw-cgi.rb?cmd=view;name=RubyCoding...
- http://www.caliban.org/ruby/rubyguide.s...

Are they "authoritative" for some meaning of the word? :)

Many thanks in advance,
Cheers.

There is no official/authoritative Style Sheet/Coding Conventions but
those two put together are what most of the community uses

That's indeed what I usually do, but a visible document on the net would
be far more reassuring for newbies willing to following the community
best-practices :)

There is also style guide on the RubyGarden wiki
(http://www.rubygarde...) , but the wiki doesn't seem to be
responding right now.
