We’re Favoring the Email List and Twitter

It’s just a bit too much maintenance to update the email list and this blog-based site for every meeting, so I’m going to stop posting upcoming meeting notes here. I’ll send reminders and notes for the meetings only to the email list and to Twitter, and leave this page as more of a...

RubyGorge finds a home at Indian Creek, builds meeting agenda

I’m pleased to announce that RubyGorge has found a home at the Columbia Gorge Community College Indian Creek Campus! Through spring and most likely the summer, the CGCC has graciously offered us space in a smart classroom (Room 311) for our RubyGorge meetings. The room contains internet, a projector and ample space for some great Ruby meetings and pair programming!

Our next meeting is Thursday, April 8th.

Meeting Agendas

I have an idea for regular meeting agendas that include ample time for both new Ruby programmers and the veterans to get something from RubyGorge:

  • Ruby Basics (6-7 PM): Newbies can bring there laptops and we’ll work to get Ruby set-up on them if they don’t already have that. Once that’s done, we can have a bit of an introductory Ruby discussion. For this first Indian Creek meeting, we’ll be getting acquainted with the room, and with each other.
  • Ruby Gorge (7-9 PM): The remainder of the evening will be more advanced discussions on Ruby, featuring topical sections that people may present, or full-on pair programming. For this first meeting, I’d like to discuss plans for RubyGorge to build a website from the ground up to help the Gorge Technology Alliance.

This is an open discussion on agenda, so feel free to bring up issues and ideas over on the Google Groups page.
