I understand Ruby Central doesn't own the source code, it's open source, and that they own the service, but who owned the GitHub account/repo ? Who created it originally?

>>didibu+Cp
The same people who created ruby central write the first versions of rubygems iirc (David Black , Chad Fowlernetc). But that was a long time ago and I'm not sure it matters to the current kerfuffle.

> David Black

now there's a name I haven't heard in a while! he was definitely one of the prominent people keeping the ruby mailing list fun and friendly back in the day; I miss that early ruby era where everyone was enthusiastic about how nice the language felt to use.

Yep. I think he retired in the late 00's. Lovely guy.
