Ruby Open Source Night

• 6:30pm - Pre-talk Networking Time - Anticafe Place Des Arts (294 Saint-Catherine St W, 3rd floor, Montreal, Quebec H2X 2A1): this is a coworking space, so the event costs about $10 that covers drinks like coffee/tea and snacks like chips/pretzels/cookies; sign in on Anticafe's computer when you enter and pay Anticafe for your stay when you leave; after signing in, go to the 3rd floor, turn left, and then walk to the presentation room with the projector screen. You can come earlier than 6:30pm if you really want to, but your stay would then cost a few dollars more.
• 7:00pm Event starts
• 8:30pm Networking time starts at Benelux Microbrewery (245 Sherbrooke St W, Montreal, Quebec H2X 1X8).

Ruby Open Source Night [90m]

Work on a Ruby open source contribution individually or in pairs. Could be a bug fix, enhancement, or new feature for an existing Ruby gem/project or a new Ruby gem/project. Ideally, by the end of the meetup, either a Pull Request is created or an agile incremental mini-release is made by releasing a Ruby gem version. But, at minimum, a Git branch is pushed with new code changes. It is encouraged that attendees think about open source contribution ideas before arriving to hit the ground running at the meetup. If help is needed in choosing an open-source project to work on, other event attendees could share ideas with others.

If you have a Ruby talk idea you would like to present at a future Montreal.rb meetup, please contact the organizer (Andy Maleh) to get your talk scheduled in an available future meetup month (it is also possible to bump talks by organizers of the group into later months to take one of their month slots for your talk). You can also contact the organizer if your company is interested in hosting a future Montreal.rb meetup at their Montreal office. Note that speakers must present in-person in Montreal because the goal of the meetup is to encourage more in-person networking and socialization around Ruby Software Engineering topics with maximum communication bandwidth. Talks are recorded and posted on the @montreal-rb YouTube Channel if talk speakers agree.
