You write it once, and somehow it will stay=20 alive by users contribution. One of the main problems for rubyonrails young developers is where to use= =20 the technology they have just learnt. Normally the first thing you do, is= =20 download everything in your computer and kickoff those recipes and ToDo=20 rails projects. Once you have played enough you would love to start=20 publishing more stuff, and not many will have full access to a server to=20 install ruby+rails ... if you help that step, the technology will get close= r=20 to the ones that need it. In any case, this is just a request to whom it might do something about it= =20 ... thx and nice day! FeR On 4/27/05, Andy Stone wrote: >=20 > hehe, no.
