Hello all,

I am about to start my masters dissertation which is focused on Ruby on  
Rails and would like to reference some journal articles and conference  
papers that relate to Rails.

I will, of course, be searching on Google but I was just wondering if  
anyone within the Rails community knows where I might be able to find  
Rails-related journal articles and conference papers?

Thanks for your help 🙂

Good luck with that 😉  
There is not much published about ruby on rails for as far as I know.  
For an assignment of one of my classes I wrote an essay on Ruby on  
Rails and maintainability, maybe some of the reference will be of any  
help to you. It is linked to on: [http://www.techcfl.com/blog/?p=77](http://www.techcfl.com/blog/?p=77)

Success,

Arjen,

Thank you so much for the link! Very impressive work! I will almost  
certainly reference your work as I too will be looking at the  
maintainability of Rails.

Thanks,

Craig
