It sure fucking is bonkers.

Ruby Central as an organization touts that it is responsible for RubyGems. Assuming this narrative is accurate, they needed to get agreements in place with contributors to appease some funding partners.

This shit happens. Especially as an open-source project started by one dude in 2009 turns into critical infrastructure managed by a 501(c)(3) non-profit.

That they failed so fucking spectacularly speaks incredibly poorly of their board.
