Has there been any attempt from Ruby Central to undo the damage they caused? Can anyone comment on the current state of affairs?


Still waiting for them to reschedule the Zoom call they were going to do with the community.... something tells me we'll be waiting for a while.


This makes sense, since there won’t be a community left to have a call with if they don’t get their shit together.


Maybe they're waiting till after Yom Kippur? ;-)


I think this was the last statement from Ruby Central: https://youtu.be/VyCiE3GjQps?si=QgY1sa_w-59jJjQ3

This topic seems to be in a holding pattern now. People are waiting to see how Ruby Central responds. Some are hoping for the Q&A to be rescheduled or at least another statement


I also fact checked that video here. https://joel.drapper.me/p/ruby-central-fact-check/


> I know for a fact that Ruby Central knew that it had no right to take over the RubyGems open source properties. I know this from speaking to the people involved and I have video evidence that Ruby Central knew.

Wow.


In this, the year of someone's lord 2025, surely there's a non-video version, right?


There was a Gist posted of the transcript: https://gist.github.com/schneems/8f5179c8fa3d57cb6025d9e62c1...


Probably on Discord.


The YouTube video may have a transcript.


same as previous written statements

blah, blah, strengthening governance, blah, blah

again, conflating code and rubygems.org service

anyway it's about "protecting the Ruby community"


For a video claiming to have a timeline was awfully short on dates.
