RELEASED – “Rails 2.1 – What`s new ?” Book
The Book Rails 2.1 – What`s new ? Made by Carlos Brando and Tapajós was released last week. It was the very first book presenting Rails 2.1 and its new features, in Portuguese, and best of all, it was released free of charge ( like free beer).
But Carlos Brando and the Brazilian rails community were very upset because most Railers of the world couldn`t read portuguese so they couldn`t rejoice the book like us. So I and other fellows, lead by Carlos Brando got together to translate the book to english, so all people could read and use it.
I`m very proud of being part of this community that made the translation and reviewed it in less than 2 days. You can download the book here or from Carlos Brando blog.

Open Source Rails
Para quem gosta de aprender olhando código existente ou prefere não reinventar a roda toda vez que for criar um sistema em rails, temos agora a oportunidade de pesquisar e baixar sistemas rails completos.
A iniciativa é do railer Jacques Crocker, que criou o site Open Source Rails, onde ele compila grande parte dos sistemas rails open source do mercado, como por exemplo, Mephisto, Typo e Lovd By less. Ele convida a comunidade a se cadastrar no site e a mandarem novos sistemas para lá. Vale a pena conferir o projeto e contribuir, pois é importante para a comunidade rails!
