Forum: Ruby [ANN} JRuby Hackfest Berlin on February 2

Hello fellow Rubyists,

the eurucamp team, along with the Ruby Berlin e.V. will run a series of 
Hackfests in Berlin this year. Each of these days will have a focus[1]. 
The first one will be "Improving JRuby".

JRuby is one of the most important projects and arguably most polished 
in the Ruby world, but notoriously low on committers, especially when it 
comes to JRuby-only libraries and documentation. This day tries to get 
experienced JRuby developers and beginners together in one room to give 
back to the JRuby team.

Please attend if you are:
- Willing to give back to one of the hardest working teams in the Ruby 
community, but never go around to
- Generally interested in hacking and showing what the Berlin Ruby 
community is capable of
- Experienced with JRuby and able to assist newbies to pick up 
JRuby-specific topics
- A gem author that struggles with incompatibilty issues
- bitten by JRuby from time to time

The details of the first hackday are:

    Date: February 2
    Co-up Coworking Space (3rd Floor)
    Adalbertstrae 7-8

Exact times will be posted on the event page next week.
