And thanks go out to Prakash for coming up with the idea for the site as
well as spearheading product definition.

Anytime works. Remote pairing OK too. Let me know.

The app is coming along fine so far, with awesome contributions from many in
the Boulder Ruby Community! Do check out the
*website<http://promiscuous-pair-programming.heroku.com/>
*.

The progress has been much slower than what I had originally thought of -
but thats OK because its been an incredible learning experience for all
involved!

While it is attractive to have the web-site up and running in quick time by
having a couple of Rails experienced folks work on it for a couple of days,
I think it is better that the process of building the web-site help people
learn stuff at the same time. After all, the website's aim is to promote
learning through paired programming.

In that context, I invite the experienced Ruby and Rails professionals in
the community to contribute to the project by pairing with someone else -
preferably someone who is a beginner in Ruby / Rails. The steps to
contribute to the project are documented on *the github repository
page*<http://bit.ly/cPdEgz>
.

I am immensely thankful to Mike Gehard, Patrick Reagan, Elliot Winkler, Ben
Brinkerhoff, Ryan Angilly & Dave Kapp for spending many hours pairing with
me over the last week to get the site to where it is now, and to allow me to
learn from their experience. Also, thankful to Ben Atkin, Sean Luckett,
Craig Anderson and Marty Haught for their inputs.

No matter what stage the app is at, I am planning to demo it as part of a
lightning talk at the Ruby Conf next week :-)

Thanks!
