Ruby has absolutely no process - not even an equivalent of PEPs. What corruption do you think there is there?

Not no process, since Matz is effectively BDFL, isn't he?

That’s the abscence of process. No votes, no committees, no grown people pretending they’re a court of appeal.

That seems optimistic. Especially since bureaucracy and corruption have coexisted in various scenarios.
