I'll wait for RubyCentral's side on this, but on the face of what's written, these actions do not seem to be transparent or in good faith. Is there something posted from RubyCentral's side?
I wish the Ruby community strength, and a transition over to a community-owned org, one way or another.
(With NPM, WordPress, now this - seems like package repositories are becoming a flashpoint of corporate takeovers..)
