* pull down the issues from a given Github repo:
> curl https://api.github.com/repos/:user/:repo/issues > :repo-issues.json
Of course replace :username and :repo with the correct data. This will
dump all of the open issues for that repo into a file in JSON format.
* Install your deps
I'll be bringing a rubygems.org mirror and we can do a rubydoc.info
mirror with this as well. However, you'll still need non-ruby deps if
you don't have them. Make sure to install mysql, sqlite3, postgresql,
ImageMagick, git, and any other deps. If you're on a Mac use Homebrew:
http://mxcl.github.com/homebrew/
* Install your rubies
You might want to play with difference versions of Ruby this weekend.
Use RVM and install whatever rubies you want.
Hopefully this will get people over the lack of internet. :)
