Summary

Ruby Together addresses the challenge of maintaining critical Ruby infrastructure, such as Bundler and RubyGems.org, which have historically relied on volunteer work. As the Ruby community has grown, this volunteer model has become insufficient, prompting the establishment of Ruby Together to coordinate funding and ensure fair compensation for developers involved in maintenance, on-call rotations, and service improvements. By fostering collaboration among Ruby developers and companies, Ruby Together aims to enhance the tools and infrastructure vital to the Ruby ecosystem. Notable members like GitLab, Basecamp, and Stripe contribute to these efforts, supporting initiatives like turning RubyBench.org into a comprehensive performance benchmarking resource. Membership in Ruby Together offers companies and individuals tax-deductible opportunities to support the ongoing development and sustainability of the Ruby community's tools and infrastructure.
