Just a quick note to let you know I’ve publicly launched the site I’ve  
been working on. It’s my first hands-on project in 15 years and I would  
not have been able to accomplish it without Rails and the tremendous  
community here. Unless you’re concerned about the privacy of personal  
health information or have friends / family working in dangerous  
industries like heavy construction, you probably won’t think it’s that  
cool. Actually, I don’t think of it as cool. Just needed. Anyway, I’d  
be very glad to have any feedback from anyone who can make the time to  
take a look. And thanks to all of you who’ve helped me get here.

The site’s at [www.YourTimeMatters.com](http://www.YourTimeMatters.com)

Best regards,  
Bill

Congratulations Bill! You’ve been working on that for a while now

Hi Ezra,

Thanks, Ezra. I appreciate that very much. Backgroundrb was a critical  
component and I really appreciate the help you gave me.

Almost a year. After being out of hands-on development for 15 years,  
there  
was a lot more to learn than I realized. The medical XML standard that  
underlies the site was one of the more difficult. Rails was one of the  
easier 😉 Seriously though, without Rails to stand on and the  
tremendous  
support here, it wouldn’t have been possible.

Thanks again,  
Bill
