I haven't used Rubygems before but doesn't it allow publishing from a new repo? pypi allows updating publishing configs.
A repo fork (and maybe more so the GitHub identify fork) is definitely not ideal but if your users can get updates to their packages, maybe it's best to move forward as well as possible.
