Hello team,
I work with a series of *NIX servers (way over 100) which are not a= llowed to access the web and for which I am slowly trying to install Ruby. = I compiled Ruby on one server and then distribute the resulting files onto = the other servers. This does not always work. One big problem is installing= GEMs as I have to first download it to the server that is allowed into the= web, then whatever I need to do to install it where needed.

I was wondering:

  1. Is it legal (licensing, Etc) to c= lone https://rubygems.or= g into my local server?
  2. If it is legal, is there special proces= s to do this? I have never done something like this!
  3. If it is legal, how can I determine the size of https://rubygems.org, so I can allocate the= necessary storage?
Thank you
