DateTuesday, October 14, 2008 at 11:33PM
Tonight I'm demonstrating Rails to the local .NET user group. I may survive.

  • Firefox 3.1 beta 1 now available for download - The alphas were pretty rough, but I'll be giving the beta a try shortly.

  • Slim-Attributes v0.5.0 released - ActiveRecord patch to speed up performance if you don't feel like limiting your finds to only the fields you need.

  • ScrumNinja - New hosted project management tool built for Scrum teams.

  • BackgrounDRb 1.1 - Better scripting, logging, tests, yay.

    Mike, do you use scrum for managing your client projects or do you use a personal variation?

    It varies. On some projects I'm joining to help an existing team, so I use whatever their process is and try to make helpful suggestions. On stuff where it's just me, I tend to be even lighter-weight than scrum. Everything is more or less agile, but I'm not stuck to any particular process.
