Hi SD Ruby, My name is Charles and I'm a Ruby developer based in Washington DC. I'm working on a 12 month fellowship at the Department of Energy, and one of my projects is to help the Department organize a hackathon *next weekend* in San Diego, to support the Department's just-announced $100,000 "Apps for Energy" contest. <http://energychallenge.energy.gov>
It would be awesome to see some Rubyists at the (free) event! See below for full details. Any help sharing with the dev/design/clean tech community in San Diego would be much appreciated as I don't know many folks in your neck of the woods. Have a nice weekend!
