Kudos for the initiative !
Yes, rubyforge.org seems to be the a good place
at least for distribution, to get started with.
Still it's possible a project this size requires some
other facilities I'm not sure whether rubyforge is able
to accomodate.
The man to inquiry there is of course the great
Tom Copeland, longtime rubyforge sysadmin

Also, it's possible you could use the readily
available infrastructure at ruby-lang.org.
The JRuby guys found a home at codehaus.org
but that makes sense for them because that's
a mainly java-focused community, or community
cluster.
It's possible there's something alike out there
for .NET projects.
I guess it all depends on whether you want to
create a new community from scratch, or you want
to take advantage of a readily available
infrastructure/community
On the licence topic, my hunch says most ruby
developers would want it to be the Ruby licence,
if possible, but I've read Matz expressing he wishes
on hindsight he had chosen the BSD licence for Ruby
