I wasn't expecting such a nice writeup. Worth a read.

The Ruby community has been eating itself alive since almost the beginning, but it is sad to see the short-sighted destruction of trust and connection that this has had.

I've never written a line of Ruby in my life so this is coming from an outsiders perspective, but after this I don't know how anyone ever works with these people again. I would think the entire community would start finding ways to migrate away. Presumably those repos can be forked, and it sounds like a new source of Gems can be hosted. I doubt it would be easy by any stretch of the imagination, but essentially this entire leadership team just showed themselves to be entirely untrustworthy.

Spinel's "rv" seems to be just that—obviating Ruby Central.
