I think this was the last statement from Ruby Central: https://youtu.be/VyCiE3GjQps?si=QgY1sa_w-59jJjQ3

This topic seems to be in a holding pattern now. People are waiting to see how Ruby Central responds. Some are hoping for the Q&A to be rescheduled or at least another statement

I also fact checked that video here. https://joel.drapper.me/p/ruby-central-fact-check/
> I know for a fact that Ruby Central knew that it had no right to take over the RubyGems open source properties. I know this from speaking to the people involved and I have video evidence that Ruby Central knew.

Wow.

In this, the year of someone's lord 2025, surely there's a non-video version, right?
There was a Gist posted of the transcript: https://gist.github.com/schneems/8f5179c8fa3d57cb6025d9e62c1...
Probably on Discord.
The YouTube video may have a transcript.
same as previous written statements

blah, blah, strengthening governance, blah, blah

again, conflating code and rubygems.org service

anyway it's about "protecting the Ruby community"

For a video claiming to have a timeline was awfully short on dates.
