Ruby and Rails Resources + Training

[Bradley Grzesiak]

Hey all,

I'd like to put together a full-day training session for y'all on Ruby and Rails. The earliest I can do this is Feb 5, so how does that sound to you? Maybe meet at 9am, and we all chip in for pizza for lunch?

We at Bendyworks are looking at putting on regular courses like this and charge attendees. This particular session will, of course, be free and serve as a proving ground for future courses. And to get you primed, Bam! Google Doc'd!

Count me in.

[Brian Beermann]

me as well.

[Greg Tracy]

I'd be in for part of it... If/When you want to get more interest, I
would suggest using the web608 group. This is the kind of stuff I'd
like to see that group do.

Thanks!

I'd love to but I'll be out of town that weekend. Don't even think of trying to reschedule on my account though.

[Bradley Grzesiak]

So, it's looking like this will conflict with Build Madison, a 24-hour "build random stuff with like-minded people at Sector67" event (not yet updated website here: http://www.buildmadison.org/ )

Who's ok with moving the date of the RoR training to Feb 12?

[Steven Faulkner]

I am cool with that

-Steve

[Pete Johnson]

Should be fine with me as well.

[Lucas Dailey]

Works for me.

[Pete Johnson]

I will be out of town that weekend. I would like to attend, but understand if this is the only day that works for everyone.

[Pete Johnson]

Brad, is this finalized for the 12th? If not, can I suggest the following weekend - I would like to attend and am out of town this weekend. If it is, have fun.

Hey all,

Sorry for the silence. The plan is still to do the training this Saturday. Let's say 10am at Bendyworks. If I hear a bunch of "I can't make it"s in addition to Pete's, we can reschedule.

Please install VirtualBox ahead of time. http://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads If you can arrive early, that'd be great, and we'll get the VM appliance installed on your box.

I'll be there with bells on.

[Steven Faulkner]

I will be there. No bells.

[Brian Beermann]

I'm in. When are you planning for this to conclude?

[Bradley Grzesiak]

Your learning will cease when you breathe your last breath.

Uh....I mean... I dunno. 5? 6?

[philip crawford]

I'll be there.

What is VirtualBox for?

Well, install VirtualBox if you don't already have a decent ruby development already running. I'm building an Ubuntu image for everyone to start from.
