There was a response from a number of folks. We have nine folks listed who are not on the Microsoft IronRuby team! We missed the dozen mark, so I still do encourage folks to sign up for some tasks.
For those who have signed up, thanks for committing to contribute! Every little bit helps. Do let us know if any process can be improved to make things easier for you. I also request you to try to update the wiki with just a couple of lines of what you are planning to do, where you are at, if there is opportunity to collaborate with other, etc. If your project catches someone's interest, you will get a collaborator which will be awesome. Here is the current information straight from http://wiki.github.com/ironruby/ironruby/contributing... Who is working on what See the People page<http://www.ironruby.net/About/People> for contact information of the contributors, or send an email to the mailing list. If you want to collaborate on any of the tasks, please contact the persons listed below. They would appreciate getting help, and you can coordinate your efforts. If you have your name listed below, please update this page with information about your status (even if it is to say something like "I wont be working on this for the next two weeks..."), if there are tasks you are looking for collaborators, etc. Rails<http://rubyonrails.org> Jimmy Schementi including Silverline<http://schementi.com/silverline> - Rails and Silverlight integration RubyGems Shri Borde, Jirapong Nanta Cucumber Chamini Gallage Magic<http://github.com/thbar/magic/> Thibaut Barrère IronRuby MVC<http://github.com/jschementi/ironrubymvc> Jimmy Schementi, Ivan Porto Carrero Hpricot<http://github.com/nrk/ironruby-hpricot/> Daniele Alessandri Json<http://github.com/nrk/ironruby-json> Daniele Alessandri Silverlight<http://github.com/jschementi/agdlr> Jimmy Schementi IRDb<http://github.com/rvernagus/irdb> Ray Vernagus OpenSSL<http://www.ruby-doc.org/stdlib/libdoc/openssl/rdoc/index.html> Jirapong Nanta (doing initial investigation) Porting SOAP Weather Widget<http://silverlight.net/community/gallerydetail.aspx?cat=sl2> Shay Friedman IO.popen<http://www.ruby-doc.org/core/classes/IO.html#M002267> Thibaut Barrère RubySpec bugs Tim Chen RSpec + .NET mocking frameworks Mark Ryall Thanks, Shri From: Shri Borde Sent: Friday, April 03, 2009 1:45 PM To: ironruby-core@rubyforge.org Subject: Requesting contributions to IronRuby We are getting closer to the V1 release of IronRuby which is planned for summer this year. The implementation has become fairly complete and usable in a lot of scenarios. Over the last few months, we have also improved our processes to make it easier for the community to contribute to the project. This includes moving the sources to GIT, pushing the sources to GIT daily from our internal repo, adding shortcuts and scripts to make the dev environment easy to use, having the Microsoft team work out of GIT, and finally adding information on http://wiki.github.com/ironruby/ironruby/. Many folks are able to build and run the tests easily. This opens up the opportunity for more of you to contribute to IronRuby and help make the V1 release be more complete and solid. If you have ideas of your own, go for it by all means. If you are looking for suggestions, I have added a few ideas at http://wiki.github.com/ironruby/ironruby/contributing. There are easy tasks like fixing RubySpec bugs and difficult tasks like porting a C# sample. If you are interested in any of the tasks, let us know and we will do our best to help you get started. Every little bit helps, so don't worry if you are not sure how much time you can commit, if you are not sure how hard the tasks will be, etc. I would love to see more people signed up for tasks in the "Who is working on what" section. There are six names there right now. Can we get to a dozen? Thanks, Shri
