Not sure I'm fully onboard with removing badges from README. What's the rationale behind this?

Mainly because they are not useful for the final users.

  • Travis badge don't add anything since we expect the build to be always green.
  • Rubygems badge only give the last release, they can get the same information form GItHub release page.
  • Codeclimate badge I don't even think codeclimate is useful, but even if it is gem users don't need to care about it
  • Gemnasium it has useful informations only for contributors.

So, IMHO all badges are not useful for the users of the library but they may be useful for contributors so I think it belongs to the CONTRIBUTING.md file.
