A Fresh Cup is Mike Gunderloy's software development weblog, covering Ruby on Rails and whatever else I find interesting in the universe of software. I'm a full-time Rails developer and contributor, available for long- or short-term consulting, with solid experience in working as part of a distributed team. If you'd like to hire me, drop me a line. I'm also the author of Rails Rescue Handbook and Rails Freelancing Handbook.

Open Source Report #3

Oh dear, I missed putting one of these out last week. Well, I haven't stopped working on stuff, let's see what I can remember touching.

  • RubyGems - Got myself added to the rubygems team on GitHub - that's kind of scary, really, as now I can break code for the entire community. Used my newfound power to fix some grammar and license issues. Also kicked off a thread on sorting out the RubyGems documentation.
  • RubyGems Guides - Added some new content to the Resources page.
  • Command Line Reporter - I proposed a new NullFormatter. Ultimately this pull request wasn't accepted, but it did inspire a similar feature.
  • What's New in Edge Rails - This series of posts is still going strong, as you presumably know from reading this blog.
  • Larkistrano - I've actually worked a bunch on this deployment gem, but not pushed most of the work publicly because I'm doing some severe rethinking of architecture. Hopefully will get something out next week. It is definitely not usable in its current form.
  • shoulda-context - Fixed the documentation to match the code. Updated the copyright while I was in there.

So…nothing too spectacular, but doing my part. That's enough for me.
