Ah, Portland. The open-source motherland. Pacific springtime beauty.
RailsConf '07 nirvana.rb # => true and home of CD Baby, a little record
store that digs Ruby and Rails.
We’re gearing up for a RailsConf hackfest[1] at the Jupiter hotel just
down
the street and figured, heck, let’s start now! The top twenty Rails
contributors between the new year and conference registration opening
day
will have a free conf pass and a room at the Jupiter specially reserved,
CD
Baby’s treat.
No kidding. Registration opens in a matter of weeks. Sprint!
Rails contribution is measured by real Trac activity weighted in favor
of
well-tested, committed patches but also accounts for new tickets and
even
comments. We’re joining forces with Working With Rails to track Rails
contributions[2] from the new year onward. To be included, mark yourself
as
a core contributor and give your Trac username in your account profile.
Have a Rails itch you’ve longed to scratch? Now’s the time! Happy
hacking,
and see you at RailsConf.

Update: I announced contest close on the opening day of
registration[1] but Derek announced an earlier deadline on January
22nd[2]. Sorry for the confusion! To draw a reasonable compromise, the contest closes tonight, January 24th, at midnight PST. (That’s
2007-01-25 08:00:00 UTC.) After the contest closes, we’ll continue
scoring the backlog of patches submitted before the deadline then
announce the winners this weekend.
So far, 258 participants have opened 443 tickets, submitted 501
patches, and made 2976 changes. Congratulations! And the leaderboard’s
still tight with 17 hours to go…[3]
