How so? I'm not counting updates — these connection counts show
repodata queries, so they happen even if there are no updates. My point
here wasn't amount of change, but number of users.

That said, I think EPEL _and_ Fedora OS users would benefit from being
able to choose between having frequently updated Ruby packages _or_ the
"single import, stays in that state barring a serious security issue"
without having that choice be dependent on the base operating system.
