Hi,

Since adding support to ruby2.7 in unstable is mostly done [1][2], I'd like to 
move forward and upload
ruby-defaults/1:2.7~0 with only ruby2.7 from experimental to unstable. Some 
Ruby team members have been
using it for a while and we are confident that we can proceed with the 
transition.

Here is the list of FTBFS we still have against ruby2.7 [3]. We discussed in 
the last Ruby team IRC meeting
and we agreed that those packages shouldn't be a problem, and people who care 
about them need to get them
fixed or they will be removed from the archive.

In Ubuntu we used the following ben file [4] to track this part of transition:

title       = "ruby2.7-only";
is_affected = .depends ~ /libruby2/;
is_good     = .depends ~ /libruby2.7/;
is_bad      = .depends ~ /libruby2.5/;

Waiting for your feedback to move forward.
