Subject: [Boulder-Denver Ruby Group] colorado music web site in Ruby on Rails
Message-ID: <19eed7f80704021654m149f66c5q21b21df62f22e1b@mail.gmail.com>

Hi,

I live in Glenwood Springs, and I want to find other Colorado Ruby on Rails
enthusiasts. I have put together a web site for local music schedules in the
mountains in Ruby on Rails: http://www.mountainshows.com.

I'm very happy with the RoR  framework, and the performance on a low cost
shared hosting provider: ocssolutions.com has been pretty fast using
lighttpd. I hope to switch it over to mongrel to improve the performance
even more.

Hopefully someday I can make it to the front range for one of your meetings!

Thanks,

Ryan Grow
President, MountainShows, LLC
Glenwood Springs, CO

Hi Ryan...

I'm in Durango, and I sent the mountainshows address to my favorite
local players.  Nice work!  I'd be interested in any details about any
tricky RoR parts you ran into while making the site.

Message-ID: <57f29e620704031354o2ce389a8gfa22fd0f7f3e5620@mail.gmail.com>

Hi Everyone,

Here are some more details on the April 18th meeting.  We'll be
starting at our usual time of 6:30pm.  The main focus of the April
meeting will be on lightning talks.  We had a great round of lightning
talks back in the fall and several of you have requested we do another
round.  I fully agree and now we're doing that.  So what is a
lightning talk?  It's a short 5-10 minute presentation on some Ruby
related topic.  It could be a brief overview of a Gem you've been
using (or maybe wrote) that you want to share with the group.  It
could be a cool Rails plugin as well.  Maybe you've got a cool new app
that you want to share and show off the cool work you've recently
done.  All of these could be great lightning talks.  If you are
interested in doing a lightning talk, please email me offlist and let
me know what you want to present on.

But that's not the only thing we'll be doing on the April meeting.
Ara Howard is going to present a moderate (easy for your Ruby meta
programmers out there) Ruby puzzle for you to ponder.  He'll do so at
the beginning of the meeting so bring your laptops and hack away at it
during the transitions between talks.  At the end of the meeting Ara
will go over the answers and we can discuss them.  It looks like a
good meeting so I hope to see you all there.  Location with directions
are listed below.

Cheers,
Marty

Directions:
Collective Intellect
1414 Pearl St., Suite 200
Boulder, CO 80302

It is located on the East end of the walking mall above a store called
"Baby Doll" on the South side. The Collective Intellect name is on the
door of a stairway leading up to the office.

This was received in my inbox Friday morning. When you say "tomorrow
evening" do you mean Friday or Saturday?

I'm assuming you mean Friday, April 6 @ 8:00 PM at the Lazy Dog. Correct?

Yes, congrats!

In other news... please pass on my regrets to David; I won't be able
to make it out tonight (and I was hoping to see him while he was in
town this week).  Have a beer for me.

Hi Everyone,

Tomorrow, April 18th, the Boulder-Denver Ruby Group will be meeting at
6:30pm at our location on Pearl Street Mall in Boulder (directions
below).  The bulk of the meeting with be lightning talks, of which we
have some good ones.  However, we do have plenty of time left to fit
in several more talks.  If you want to present, please email me
offlist to get your talk scheduled.  The other thing we'll be doing at
the meeting, beyond hanging out with other Rubyists, is we'll present
a Ruby puzzle for you to ponder.  After the lightning talks are over
we'll discuss possible answers.  I hope to see you all there tomorrow.

Cheers,
Marty

I want to thank all of you who came out to our meeting last night.  I
hope you all enjoyed the various lightning talks and the discussion on
the Ruby quiz.  At the end we mentioned about our next meeting and
said it would be on Wednesday May 16th.  After some discussion with
some of you, we realized that it's the day before RailsConf starts and
some of us will be traveling at that time.  In light of this we've
moved the meeting to Tuesday, May 15th to accommodate those of you who
will be traveling on Wednesday.

For May's meeting we have Jay Phillips presenting on Adhearsion which
is a cool Ruby framework for integrating VoIP via Asterisk.  You can
check it out at http://adhearsion.com.  Bruce Williams will also be
presenting.  We'll have more details on his talk as we get closer.
This is a special meeting in that this will be Bruce's last meeting as
a Colorado resident.  He'll be moving to Austin, TX in June.  So come
and wish Bruce the best of luck at our May meeting.  It is traditional
that after the meeting we head over to the Lucky Dog pub down the
block.  As usual I will be sending out a reminder email closer to the
date with more details.

FYI, Bob's talk will include coverage of rSpec, the Ruby framework for 
Behavior Driven Development.

- Alex

***

A friendly reminder that this coming Monday, April 30th, Agile Denver 
will host guest speaker Bob Cotton. Bob will present on "Behavior Driven 
Development: An Evolution in Testing". The meeting will be held at the 
PPA Event Center near Downtown Denver. The doors will open at 6:00pm for 
networking and refreshments.

Behavior Driven Development (BDD) is not a revolution in testing, but an
evolution in how developers think about program design. BDD was born
from the idea that most developers were not realizing the full potential
from Test Driven Development (TDD). Many people have said that TDD is
not about testing but about design. However, the language of "testing"
impedes the novice from using TDD as a design tool.

The rSpec project is an implementation of BDD in Ruby. Taking advantage
of the language's flexibility, rSpec gives the developer a rich language
in which to express behavior, from the unit level up to story
acceptance. rSpec is a unit testing framework that tries to focus the
developer on defining the behavior of classes instead of testing private
methods and internal state. rSpec also includes a mock objects
framework.

In this talk Bob Cotton, test architect at Rally Software, will:

* Discuss the language of testing and how it impedes developers from
reaching the real benefits of TDD.

* Cover rSpec, the Ruby framework for BDD.

* Show how Rally has leveraged these concepts for the definition of
acceptance tests.


AGENDA:

6:00 - 6:30 PM  Refreshments, networking and announcements

6:30 - 8:00 PM  Bob Cotton presentation


SPEAKER

With over 12 years of developing and testing web applications, Bob has
extensive experience testing applications using open source testing
tools. From unit, load, functional and GUI testing Bob has applied many
tools and techniques to testing large scale, SaaS (Software as a
Service) applications. Most recently at Rally Software Development
(www.rallydev.com), Bob has helped shape an Agile software methodology
by including unique approaches to software test automation.

Automated testing, using tools such as FitNesse and Selenium, are
integrated into the development process from the beginning of each
iteration. Prior to joining Rally, Bob worked as the System Architect at
SynXis Corp, where he helped build and test a high-volume (multi-million
messages a day) hotel reservation system.

Bob holds a B.S. in computer science from George Mason University.


SPONSOR

The April 2007 meeting is sponsored by Rally Software.

Subject: [Boulder-Denver Ruby Group] Accelerated Ruby Class, June 9th
Message-ID: <20070430035809.GB31850@slim.pmade.com>

I'm teaching an accelerated class on Ruby, on Saturday June 9th.  I realize
that most of the group won't be interested, but I'm hoping you can pass this
on to someone who might be.

The class size will be small (around 10 people) in order to promote better
learning and more interaction.  If you register by May 15th, the price for the
class will be $120.

If you're interested, or want more information, please send me an email.

Peter,

I was curious about the hours for the class on the 9th?  Thanks.

I apologize for being so vague regarding the classes.

The class on June 9th will be for people who have little or no experience with
Ruby and want to move up to a strong intermediate level.  I'll also be
throwing in some advanced topics for good measure.

If there is enough demand, I might teach this "crash course in programming"
class on June 2nd.  The goal of this class would be to help people that don't
have a solid foundation in software development.  Topics would include CS 101
type stuff, e.g. the difference between procedural and object-oriented
programming.

I plan on teaching the "Accelerated Ruby" class throughout the summer, along
with an advanced Ruby class, and different levels of Rails classes.

I hope that clears things up.  Sorry about that.
