All that is needed is a link to the repository, then it can be added.
If you and all the contributors have signed the CA, then it could even
be added to GNU ELPA.

ruby-mode is maintained by Dmitry Gutov, so I've CC'ed him. If it is an
uncontroversial upgrade, I wouldn't expect any resistance, otherwise I
think it might be better to add it to GNU ELPA.
