mark this project as dead

http://documenting-ruby.org/step-by-step-guide.html is quite prominent result for googling about ruby documentation.

It would be useful to describe it as dead on its landing page give activity here (no response to PR since 2014 etc).

Hey, I'm sorry.

Much of these contributions could see more attention if submitted upstream but the submitter may feel more comfortable submitting to a fork. That was (I believe) the original intention of this project.

If you'd like to ensure this project lives on, there may be a way to save it.

Any patches which don't require feedback from the submitter could be reported upstream, either to Ruby's bug tracker or submitted as a pull request to the git mirror.

This was actually one of my first jobs as a contributor to Ruby, and still a valuable to the project.

I don't think we should "mark dead", although not as active as I'd like, some people may still find it useful if they're not comfortable contributing to Ruby outlets directly.

Thanks for bringing this up, @matkoniecz, I'd forgotten all about that PR! 🎉
