LMAO
No. He's one of the few people on the planet that could lay claim to it's copyright. He also gave the insight that Rubygems has literally ALWAYS been a part of RubyCentral.
- jcmfernandes 1y agoCopyright? WTF are you talking about? Who's talking about copyright? Did or didn't RC perform a hostile takeover of the repos?
- dismalaf 1y agoArko tried to copyright Rubygems and file a claim against RC. That's literally part of the issue here... Because the repo doesn't matter that much, it's OSS, you can fork... But if you do care about the repo, once again, RC has always controlled Rubygems. From the day it was written. The maintainers were even paid by RC. That makes it RC's, not the maintainers'.
