#rails-contrib and rubyonrails-stacks
Posted by David May 22, 2007 @ 04:11 PM
RailsConf gave birth to a number of new outlets for sub-communities within the Rails family:#rails-contrib is a new IRC channel on freenode for contributors to Rails. The Rails core team will hang out there to answer questions, discuss patches, and generally interact with anyone doing implementation work for the Rails framework. It's not meant for general chatter, though. Or for how to use the framework. It's strictly for implementational issues and the contributors working on those.
rubyonrails-stacks is a new forum to discuss how we can get standardized set of images going for Rails that can be deployed on any Xen host or even EC2. I posted a welcome with more details on the forum.
Hey. Wondering if the railconf keynote videos are coming to the web. The talks last year were a big part of the reason I came over from PHP and I’d love to see what I missed this year.
Posted in the google group but no one seems to know anything over there.
Yes, I’m looking for videos too, or even mp3 recordings would be nice to have together with slides.
I’m looking forward to deploying Rails on Leopard server running on 8 core.
One mention of Rails on Leopard server has been made so far by Apple at the WWDC07. Where’s the Rails presence at the conference to tell the story?
Apple is showing Web 2.0 solutions for everything from server to desktop to iGadget. It seems some Rails presence at the conference would have made an impact, but I guess virtualization has this groups attention for the moment.
