Hi all -

Used to be bug/patches would get a certain number of +1’s. There was  
even a site designed to help with it ([http://www.patchreview.org/](http://www.patchreview.org/)) but  
it seems out of date…

I’ve fixed one ugly bug and made a decent enhancement… just  
wondering what the procedure is to get eyeballs looking at them?

If there’s a big bright sign on lighthouse that indicates the  
procedure just point me there and I’ll hit myself upside the head 🙂

Pimp your ticket on the rubyonrails-core mailing list or in the rails-  
contrib Orc channel.

Ah… the intro to rails-contrib points to here:

[http://rails.lighthouseapp.com/projects/8994/sending-patches](http://rails.lighthouseapp.com/projects/8994/sending-patches)

Looks like they are still using the +1 system…

Which really means I should rave about them everywhere I suppose 🙂

So…

[http://rails.lighthouseapp.com/projects/8994/tickets/765-primary\_key-option-for-belongs\_to](http://rails.lighthouseapp.com/projects/8994/tickets/765-primary_key-option-for-belongs_to)  
Now you can have a has\_many/belongs\_to relationship in which you don’t  
use the table’s primary key on either side.

[http://rails.lighthouseapp.com/projects/8994/tickets/583-sql-queries-with-where-in-are-incorrectly-generated-for-named-scopes](http://rails.lighthouseapp.com/projects/8994/tickets/583-sql-queries-with-where-in-are-incorrectly-generated-for-named-scopes)  
Fixes a bug when involving named scopes and find\_all\_by\_???.

So if you care about either of those check them out 🙂
