Here's a thought or two, something of a devil's advocate argument:

If we push to get a noticeable share of TPJ (or whatever it ends up being
called), we bring Ruby to the attention of perlers, pythoners, and whomever
else. If we go off and do The Ruby Journal, while it would provide a useful
service, it would be preaching to the choir.

Writing and editing *well* are hard tasks.  I'd rather see fewer, but
better, Ruby articles, and see them reach a larger audience, than have
something that may come off as a bit amateurish or inept, simply because of
the perceived slight of second billing.
