Currently working hard on getting everything ready for RailsConf. Huge thanks to Ruby Central for being amazing.

The 2016 Ruby Heroes have been picked!
See you all at @RailsConf in a month for the ceremony. It looks like it’s going to be good one. :-)

Deliberations are nearly over, but here are some of the things I’d like for us to work on in the future.
Pitch in.

@twobree Why are you sure? How can you know? I simply asked because we haven’t done this in the past, and was curious what people thought.

That’s why we’ve tried to offer travel assistance to Heroes for the past few years.
It’s expensive & difficult.
English
Once more, with a feeling: organizer != sponsor.
If the process isn’t clear, we’ll make it clearer.
English
Ruby Heroes is also helped by Ruby Central, and by past year heroes who provide their own votes and feedback.
English
Yep, but Ruby Heroes is not organized by Code School. It’s organized by @olivierlacan, and sponsored by Code School.
English
I wonder if we should listen to the popular vote in this instance then?
English
@nateberkopec The group got the whole list with nom counts yesterday.
Next year we’ll plan more time & give access to all noms reasons.
English
Asked the past year Ruby Heroes if they wanted the full list of nominees to consider beyond the top 12% (5+ noms).
One did.
Sent it.

@practicingdev I wonder why your concerns ever go unaddressed. Perhaps try not to call things you try to improve horrible in the process.
English
@practicingdev Sure, no problem. All you had to do was ask. Not assume malice in everything.
Pleasure dealing with you. You’re delightful.
