Forum: Rails deployment Help Please: Anyone working for the Gov using RoR?

Greetings everyone,

Is there anyone working for any branch of the government (military
branches
would be particularly helpful) who is currently using Ruby or RoR?
Currently, there is no CON (Certificate of Networthiness) for Ruby or
Rails
for the US Army (if there is, it'd be news to me). I am trying to start
the
process of getting a CON for the "Rails development environment" which
is a
lot of work (Rails, RubyGems, Deployment softwares, etc. would all need
to
have CON's). It would be good to get in contact with someone currently
using
RoR in the Gov. I can use this information to basically say to the Army,
"See, the Marines (whoever) are using RoR, here is their CON paperwork
blah,
blah, blah..."

Thank you all.

Gene,

I am in the Army and am currently assigned as a research scientist and 
assistant professor of computer science in the EECS Dept at USMA.  We 
are conducting our first teach using Ruby on Rails and so far it has 
been awesome.  I finish up my tour this year and will PCS. I am a huge 
fan of RoR and will carry the RoR torch with me wherever I go next!

I am not sure we can help, but would be happy to try.
