FYI I pretty sure RubyJax also does food and refreshments during the meeting, or at least the one I attended some time back. RubyJax is corporate sponsored by Hashrocket, both food and venue. Also guess what, RubyJax has a IRC channel ;) http://rubyjax.com/ Hashrocket was also in the NY Times a while back with an article on their Pair Programming. http://www.nytimes.com/2009/09/20/jobs/20pre.html P.S. I love Hashrockets offices, one of the best views in Jax. -- William L.
