Come prepared to bring your latest news headlines for the ruby/rails
world. We use our high tech news aggregator (a whiteboard and pen) to
produce a feed of all the exciting things that have been happening in
the ruby and rails world in the last month. Our high tech delivery
method (someone writing everything down) will wing this info back to
this list for later digestion (and ideas for next months talks).
Short Talk 1:
Craig A… Rails engines: “Why they don’t suck as much as DHH
might think”. How to use them to remove duplication between
applications and to integrate third party software for greater
useability.
Short Talk 2:
This slot is open. Please volunteer. No experience necessary.
