Worked with Ruby since before Rails put it on the map, circa ought-four. Also a Rails nerd since way before 1.0. I love Agile, but it’s not always the right way to do it, and I love the right way better than any particular way. Above all I’m a hacker, which is to say nothing gets me going like a problem I can’t solve in the first 50 tries. I should be the hole into which you toss all such problems. If I don’t like something about an open source project, I do something about it, which landed me on the Mandrake (remember Mandrake?) Security Team back in ‘00 and into the CVS, subversion, mercurial and git logs of countless projects since then.
