2011-07-30 04:26:33 utc troy42 evening john
2011-07-30 04:26:41 utc troy42 thanks for the welcome
2011-07-30 04:30:09 utc jmettraux :-)
2011-07-30 04:58:34 utc troy42 trying to get my tests to stop hating me :)
2011-07-30 05:02:46 utc jmettraux as long as they don't lie to you ;-)
2011-07-30 05:14:04 utc troy42 yeah
2011-07-30 05:14:09 utc troy42 for a bit they were ;-)
2011-07-30 05:14:44 utc troy42 btw, small world - i'm a huge ruote fan (and writing an app based on it now), and helped a bit with the tokyo libraries (dystopia)
2011-07-30 05:14:56 utc troy42 you're everywhere and we love you for it :)
2011-07-30 05:15:07 utc jmettraux oh cool (dystopia)
2011-07-30 05:15:18 utc jmettraux let me look at my archives
2011-07-30 05:15:25 utc troy42 our contribution on that became http://papertrailapp.com/ (though papertrail's not TC based)
2011-07-30 05:15:36 utc troy42 but we tried it for an early attempt as open syslog
2011-07-30 05:15:58 utc troy42 now it's live and has customers and stuff
2011-07-30 05:16:28 utc jmettraux oh sweet
2011-07-30 05:17:06 utc jmettraux aaah
2011-07-30 05:17:13 utc jmettraux @troyd
2011-07-30 05:17:25 utc troy42 that's me
2011-07-30 05:17:41 utc jmettraux following you on twitter
2011-07-30 05:17:48 utc troy42 you too
2011-07-30 05:17:53 utc troy42 or rather, i'm following you too
2011-07-30 05:18:17 utc jmettraux no worries
2011-07-30 05:18:19 utc troy42 i'll give you a peek at this thing once it's live - it's a total hack project, not a full fledged business, but ruote is front and center
2011-07-30 05:18:28 utc jmettraux :-)
2011-07-30 05:18:36 utc troy42 and it should be a good public exposure for it
2011-07-30 05:19:32 utc jmettraux anytime you want, I can add it to http://ruote.rubyforge.org/users.html
2011-07-30 05:20:31 utc jmettraux ah, you're working with Eric Lindvall ?

2011-07-30 05:24:07 utc troy42 heck of a lot of work
2011-07-30 05:24:26 utc troy42 we hacked on it as a side project, set it aside, revisited, etc
2011-07-30 05:24:39 utc troy42 started, launched, operated, and sold a product during that time (cloudvox)
2011-07-30 05:26:05 utc jmettraux are you a team of 2 ?
2011-07-30 05:26:09 utc troy42 what's your primary interest? or, what pays the bills?
2011-07-30 05:26:30 utc troy42 yep, 2 plus a part-time designer in west virginia 2500km away
2011-07-30 05:26:38 utc troy42 eric and i are both near seattle
2011-07-30 05:28:04 utc jmettraux I work for companies that tolerate my explorations

2011-07-30 05:28:37 utc troy42 yeah
2011-07-30 05:29:13 utc troy42 we're pretty active in the local startup culture - isilon, f5, popcap games, valve software are the bigger startups
2011-07-30 05:29:46 utc troy42 on the smaller end, opscode, bluebox
2011-07-30 05:30:57 utc jmettraux bluebox, weren't they the employers of wayneeseguin at some point ?
2011-07-30 05:31:07 utc troy42 i think so
2011-07-30 05:31:10 utc troy42 but i'm not sure
2011-07-30 05:33:21 utc jmettraux and I forgot Amazon !
2011-07-30 05:34:08 utc troy42 yeah, they're probably the best of the majors
2011-07-30 05:34:20 utc troy42 as far as doing new stuff around here
2011-07-30 05:46:55 utc troy42 back in a while
2011-07-30 12:31:04 utc wayneeseguin jmettraux: no, we've had a partnership is all
