The idea that Ruby Central is "attacking" its own project -- that it has secured funding for -- for a decade plus, is not really based in reality. Not sure what goes on in their "Github Enterprise", but their vanilla github is pretty transparent. Marty has been doing good work in the repo as of late around the Orgs feature. I rely on rubygems.org, and my fork of rubygems.org on a daily basis.

The project is an objective public-good. It's sad that a former employee is attempting to burn it all down. I guess they thought it was all about them and not the millions of DAU's the platform has served without fail since inception. Contractors will come and go.

What are the OPs contributions even? I don't see a single commit from her handle on the 24 month view (below). Correct me if I'm wrong.

She has some PRs merged in, but nothing that shows me she should have elevated rights in the repo.
