Hey guys,
Some of you may have already heard about this, but I thought I'd post it to the list since there are quite a few people here who probably deserve some recognition and gratitude.
This morning we put up the Ruby Hero Awards (http:// www.RubyHeroes.com). There are many people in the Ruby/Rails world who contribute to our community and rarely receive any recognition or payment for their work. They write educational blogs & tutorials, create plugins & gems, contribute to open source projects, and put on events, and help out people who need assistance on mailing lists like this.
Ruby Hero Awards was created to show some gratitude and give these people the recognition they deserve. Hopefully the type of recognition that keeps them doing what they're doing, and continuing to make our community stronger.
So if you want to show some gratitude then take a moment to nominate someone you think is a Ruby Hero http://www.RubyHeroes.com.
The winners will be announced on stage at Railsconf next month.
