[Catalog-sig] RubyGems Threat Model and Requirements

[Richard Jones]

[posted on behalf of Donald Stufft]

The folks on the ruby side of things who are dealing with a lot of
the same problems as Python/PyPI is have put together a document
containing a threat model and requirements of the system. While the
terminology is obviously ruby specific the concepts all apply to us.

Further more since both languages are trying to solve the same problem
it would probably be a really good idea to join forces and hash out a system
and then diverge to actually implement it instead of both languages having
the same conversations in parallel.
