Package manager drama, not involving me: joel.drapper.me/p/rubygems-t...

Rubygems has been hurting for cash since back in the npm days when they floated merging with npm. Being dependent on donations is very precarious and extremely stressful. I really feel for them.

Turns out it's expensive actually running this kind of infra, but basically impossible to actually fund it without becoming dependent on someone else's money :|
