From: Charles Oliver Nutter Date: 2010-01-06T09:15:54+09:00 Subject: JRuby bug mash...with PRIZES! Hey all! We're running a JRuby "Bug Mash" this weekend to help attack the bug repository and get folks more involved in the project. We'll be giving out JRubyConf posters this round, and we hope to do these events periodically. You can read all about it here: http://www.engineyard.com/blog/2010/jruby-bugmash-and-events/ We've gone through and tagged a stack of probably-easy bugs with the "Intro" component (http://bit.ly/jruby-intro), so that's a great place to get started. We're also more than happy to accept fixes for any of the 400-some open bugs, so give the bug tracker (http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/JRUBY) a scan and see if you can help out! We're sure 2010 is going to be an awesome year for JRuby, so help us kick it off right! :) - Charlie
