btw, you christchurch folk - I assume you know about the Rails Camp we have organised for march next year. I ask as I don't know how many of you are on this list, so if there is a bunch of rails devs down there not on the list it would be great if you could spread the work for us.

Thanks for the talk tonight Breccan,

On that topic, here's a gem I saw today that speeds up your tests by
using multiple db's and processors to run tests in parallel. Works
with Rspec, cucumber, and I believe the standard test:unit.
