then leave it open until the 2.4 is submitted. I dont want to maintain *4* ruby branches in leap 42.3. Unless you plan to step up and help with ruby maintenance.

no discussion seen on Factory list. Furthermore there's now https://build.opensuse.org/package/view_file/openSUSE:Leap:42.3/lifecycle-data/openSUSE.lifecycle?expand=1 to mark things as deprecated.

request needs review by release management
but we don't yet to have ruby 2.4 in Leap(even in Factory)
So declining. If we get 2.4 and 2.3 has indeed no value anymore the drop of it needs to be documented in the release notes: https://github.com/openSUSE/release-notes-openSUSE/blob/Leap_42.3/xml/release-notes.xml
JFYI: coolo has submitted 2.4 to factory. see SR#477708. I start to clarify why he thinks the package is not done yet. but from my side it looks good.
postpone until discussed
as agreed offline on Friday the state of ruby in 42.3 should be quickly discussed on the Factory list to see if going for 2.1&2.4 only is fine.
Please do not remove packages during Leap lifetime. If there are users who are using ruby2.3 on 42.2 then they surely don't want to have it removed when upgrading. Please think about the poor sysadmins who will get many trouble tickets and hate from their users when suddenly user scripts with hardcoded ruby2.3 shebang does not work anymore. Leap wants to be an LTS distro!
will you step up as a co maintainer? i already have people asking for 2.4 ... that would mean 4 ruby releases in parallel. for which i dont have the time.
