Let me clarify that: Ellen was a maintainer on the Rubygems repo who RC would employ occasionally on a 10 hours/month contract. Last paid engagement we had with them was in May. They had no production access and were not an admin. They also didn't need commit rights for the work they did.

I don’t mean this as a rude question, but does anybody on the Ruby Central board who does not work for Shopify or 37signals think this is fine? That’s who I want to hear from. I’m not attacking you personally, but working for Tobi and DHH simply renders you not credible on this question.

Again, I don’t mean it personally. People make their own decisions about who they will or will not work for and why. Lord knows I’ve done it myself. But I can’t take your word for it in this circumstance.
