Houston.rb ruote presentation by Wes Gamble

During the last Houston.rb meeting, Wes Gamble talked about ruote. Here are his slides :

 

Wes does an excellent job at presenting the main concepts in ruote, process definitions, participants, workflow vs state management and so on. I’m lucky to have people evangelizing ruote as I’m a too much a “you don’t understand workflow ? You certainly don’t need ruote” type.

There was a funny coincidence : my friend Alain Hoang was visiting Houston at that time and he joined the meeting. Alain and I were co-workers when I started working on ruote. He helped me with the initial Rakefile and tamed rote to build an initial website for the project. He also came up with the initial suggestion for the rufus namespace idea.

Many thanks to Wes for his great presentation (and to Alain for all his help).
