Misc #15534: Is there reliable way to check for new Ruby releases?
https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/15534

* Author: vo.x (Vit Ondruch)

----------------------------------------
In Fedora, we are using https://release-monitoring.org/ to check for packages updates. Unfortunately, the content of https://cache.ruby-lang.org/pub/ruby/ is a bit inconsistent which makes this service unuseful.

If I open the page, there are listed a lot of packages, but for some reason, the later 2.6 releases are missing. There is a "stable" folder, but it contains just Ruby 2.3, which is quite stable, but I would expect there something more recent. There is a "binaries" folder, which contains some ancient binaries. There is also index.txt, which looks to be promising, but I am not sure.

So I wonder:
1. What is the most reliable version information
2. If it would be possible to clean up the repository
3. and make sure the information is consistent
