There is some more context on a post[1] in /r/ruby, including the fact that the maintainers and others had been working on a proposal[2] for a formalized organizational governance structure as recently as yesterday. The latter also adds some context into Mike McQuaid's involvement: the proposal was influenced by the structure put in place by the Homebrew project.

I'm trying to help, where I can, to mediate. On a call right now about this. Had 4 in the last 24 hours with affected parties past and present on both sides.

I'm not involved beyond just caring a lot about Ruby.

I know nothing about the Ruby ecosystem, but I really do appreciate that someone cares that much to mediate this mess. Thank you.
