Although it''s getting late in the month for this announcement, you haven''t missed anything yet (that I know of :-). 2/21 6:00 pm We got a venue! (RSVPs requested, via Meetup) The SF Ruby Meetup usually meets on the 2nd Tuesday of each month. However, that day turns out to be Valentine''s Day this year. So

Although I don''t _need_ RSVPs for this event 12/28 8:00 pm The Beer & Pizza SIG will meet at Wild Pepper (3601 26th. St.; SF, CA). For details, see http://cfcl/rdm/beer_and_pizza. I''d like to be able to give the restaurant some idea of the size of table we''ll be needing. So, if you are planning to attend, please drop

Wednesday''s Beer & Pizza SIG was attended by about a dozen Rubyists, plus one extremely well-dressed gentleman (no hacker he!) who was on the prowl for Rubyists to hire. Beer and Pizza (among other things) were consumed, Ruby (among other things) was discussed, and everyone appeared to have a good time. The upcoming SIG will, as announced previously, be held just up the street at

Bosco So has located a promising new venue for the SF Ruby Meetup: There is WiFi access to the Internet as well as a large plasma TV/monitor for presentations. In addition to offering caffeine in various forms, they have sandwiches and desserts. Lastly, there are lots of dining opportunities nearby for apres-event chowing. -- http://ruby.meetup.com/6/events/4815812 Meanwhile,

It turns out that the Long Island Chinese Restaurant has (a) moved and (b) changed its name (to "Wild Pepper").

I''m running into a problem with redirect_to() and Apache''s VirtualHost facility. I have probably have something set up wrong, but I''m not even sure how to approach the problem. Background: We have DNS set up to return the domain''s address for all sub-domains. So, "dig xyz.cfcl.com" returns the same IP address as "dig cfcl.com".

I now have a Solaris account and I''ve been able to try out my DT_Logger code there. I ran into several issues, but the one I''m stuck on (though working around :-) is the need for a much simplified siginfo_t definition. I looked at /usr/include/sys/siginfo.h, but I can''t figure out what the maze of #ifdefs would actually resolve to, so I don''t know which data

Josh Goebel''s Pastie is very handy, but it''s proprietary. This means that I can''t hack on it, install a local copy, etc. So, I''m looking around for an Open Source pastebot. I''ve found a few: http://common-lisp.net/project/lisppaste/ http://paste.lisp.org/ http://sourceforge.net/projects/pasteme/

I''ve got a couple of configuration questions about using lighttpd under Locomotive: * (how) can I cause lighttpd to run each Rails page request as a separate process? It seems like this should be possible, using dispatch.cgi, but I don''t know how to get that to run. * Assuming that I have a looong-running Rails app, (how) can I raise the lighttpd

I''d like to find some examples of Rails apps that act as web "user agents" (i.e., "portals" to the web at large). That is, programs that pass requests up and content back down, but also add some local intelligence, etc. Any suggestions? -r P.S. CritLink (http://zesty.ca/crit/) is an example of this sort of application. -- http://www.cfcl.com/rdm

[ I''m still hoping for some help with this, folks... -r ] As part of the Arti (http://mephisto-ar.cfcl.com) effort, I''m looking into creating a database to store information on entities and relationships found in Ruby and Rails, as: Method M1 is defined for Class C1 in File F1. Method M1 of Class C1 is used by Method M2 in File F2. Disregarding (for the moment)

I just got a Google Groups notification that I had been subscribed to http://groups.google.com/group/rubyonrails-talk. Looking at the page, it appears that about 4300 folks have been subscribed. However, I saw nothing about this on rails@lists.rubyonrails.org. Wazzup? -r -- http://www.cfcl.com/rdm Rich Morin http://www.cfcl.com/rdm/resume rdm@cfcl.com

I''m interested in the idea of using AJAX and SVG to create a simple diagram editor. It seems like Rails might be able to support this sort of thing, so I thought I''d ask if anyone is doing anything in this direction. -r -- Technical editing and writing, programming, and web development: http://www.cfcl.com/rdm/resume.html Contact information: rdm@cfcl.com, +1 650-873-7841

I must be missing something obvious here but I cannot seem to see it. I have this step definition: When /entity named "(.*)" has a legal name "(.*)"/ do |name, legal| myentity = Entity.find_by_entity_common_name!(name.hll_keycase) myentity.entity_legal_name.should equal legal.hll_keycase end Which fails with this: And the entity named "Myuser" has a legal

Dear all, If you thought Instiki was a dead project, you were right. Since I''ve got a day job that doesn''t suck (Official Ruby Zealot of ThoughtWorks Canada), my motivation to do open source greatly sufferred :) But... but... but! Here is Instiki 0.11.0, and in this version Instiki is (finally!) moving to ActiveRecord backend and (finally!) has the File Upload feature.
