I will no longer be updating svn here at crudvision.com. I want to move Reve to git (at github). I won’t do it if I can fall back to svn, so I’m jumping ship.
Moving to github will also mean I can dump dreamhost as a host and move crudvision.com to my colocated machine to save money each month.
I’m sorry for the complete void in posting. I’ve been very busy with life, work and rock climbing. Yes, that’s right, rock climbing.
In early March I started a new job in Toronto for a gaming company (I’m not really allowed to talk about it much, unfortunately). I’m a sysadmin there and I love it. It’s much better than developing the same web applications over and over. I’m almost ready to resume programming for a hobby now that I don’t do it all day every day for pay.
And the rock climbing. My partner and I started climbing recently. We’ve noticed an unusual number of IT professionals that climb! It’s cool and odd at the same time.
I hope to post more, but the real goal of the post is to say that I’m ditching subversion, trac and intend to use github as the only source of documentation for Reve. (I just hope I can get traffic from github to this blog to pad my ego.)
It’s fairly obvious that 5 tight knit people who know their shit will work better as a unit than 20 people who may perhaps not be up to level of an “expert” (to use the linked blog’s lingo). Who doesn’t dream of working exclusively with the rails core team?

Aside from having my hair cut today I wrote a Ruby library for the Eve Online API. I also wrote the above page to act as the ad-hoc home for the library until something more formal can be arranged.
It’s still early stages (and I forgot to remove my old API key from reve.rb!) but it seems to work. Have a look and post some feedback!
Technorati Profile
Think they’ll make me famous? (Probably not).
My name is Lisa Seelye and I’m a Ruby on Rails developer. That is to say I use Rails in my hobbies as well as professionally. I’ve been using it since May 2006 and have loved it since.
Prior to using Ruby and Rails I came from a PHP background (the astute observer will note that my site uses PHP) and before that Perl.
I live in the United Kingdom (by way of the United States) and work in Leeds, England. I love my job and the chance to use Rails is really nifty!
So yeah… I’m hoping to use this space to write about Ruby, Rails and other things.
The name of this domain name is shamelessly stolen from DHH’s keynote from Railsconf 2006. I happen to appreciate the CRUD way and REST so I appreciate David’s ”crudvision”.
