Could someone with more insight as to the decision-making at Ruby Central weigh in on what's going on here? Between this and drama with the conferences over the years I'm just confused. They've been busy launching podcasts and doing fundraising, email campaigns and all that. Has there been a change in leadership?

Yes, they recently hired a new Executive Director.

Someone with absolutely no technical background, a recipe for disaster.

Interesting. It worked a few hours ago. Sorry, I didn't make a copy of the text.
