Nov 10 6:00 PM	Introduction to Ruby & Rails 12 attended (est.) – 5.003 Following up on the heels of 757studio.org. We are going to host an event that will really give the newcomers to both Ruby and Rails a solid foundation in the language and framework. I'll cover the ruby object model and the entire Model/View/Controller (MVC) stack that rails has to offer. I suspect this will take the whole meeting and I would encourage a ton of stop and go questions throughout the process.	Only members of this Group can view the location for this Meetup	8 Yes 3 Maybe
