Skribe Development Weekly

Welcome to the very first edition of the Skribe Development Weekly – a summary of the lastest work carried out on the Skribe Project over the last 7 days.

If you need a run-down on what Skribe is, check out this earlier posting.

Not much to report on this week, I spent a good few hours setting up our new (shared) Dreamhost server for Ruby on Rails Development using 2 subversion repositories (for production and development). (thanks go to steve for letting us use his new Dreamhost account)

I also posted a lengthy guide to the team on how to connect and work with this repository and set up a local Windows machine for Ruby on Rails Development, with Apache2/FastCGI/MySQL, and TortoiseSVN (as a subversion client)

I intend to summarise and improve this guide for posting on my Blog. Some (not so apparent) things cropped up when I was going through the whole process.

Tom continues to investigate Ruby, and is happily working away on the Top 12 Ruby on Rails Tutorials. Steve is performing a competitor review, looking at what we are up against and brainstorming ideas for our first release.

All-in-all a productive week – The todo list keeps getting bigger and bigger, and hopefully by next week, a few logo designs will ready for unvieling, stay tuned for the next installment.
