Oh wow that's pretty serious. Thanks for the heads up Mike!

Don't use Capistrano 2.5.11

2010-01-05T01:16:42Z

It looks like the new version of Capistrano is broken.
I've not confirmed this for myself but it looks like 'cap deploy' now
deletes the most recent release.
I would strongly suggest not upgrading at this point.

Count me down for a talk. I want to follow up on Chris' famous talk
last year about the inevitability of Javascript. This will be my last
roro in Aus and I intend to go out with a bang.

So roughly how many people would apply to such a job opening? KInda
interested in the general availability of Rails devs in Sydney. GetUp
would be my ideal organisation to work for, alas, visa restrictions
...well....restrict me.

Sounds awesome. It's a shame that you are not in Melbourne.
For the last 5 years I've been happily working remotely from my home
office, but sometimes I miss shared office space, idea ping-pong and a
friendly chat during coffee breaks. :)

It's worth pointing out that this organisation is about the most righteous
place you could possibly work. They're passionate and engaged, without a
hint of extremism - just altruistic, eminently sane people getting great and
noble things done using the internet as a platform. In a nutshell, they
embody the perfect counterpoint to my darkest fears about internet

Nope,
Auspost website nows nothing about that.

It's fine for me on the project I'm working on, as I don't want PO Boxes anyhow but someone should log it as an issue with Australia Post. IMO anyway.

Andrew,
If you check the rake tasks within the gem it downloads CSV datafiles
from
australia post and packs them into the gem.
So, if its in their database, it'll be packed in postie.

Out of very idle curiosity, does it handle Penrith, NSW, 1793, a
locked bag postal address of the ATO? Some forms on the Aus Post web
site regarded 1793 as an invalid postcode.
Also, in your README, you've got an unneeded apostrophe in "add's",
and an internet-style spelling in the requirements section. (Is it ok

Hey Cam,
You might want to check out [link], a
rack-middleware
app for providing australia postcodes for suburbs. Pretty simple, just
a rack version
of @pat's original version.
