[Ruby] memcached-like Ruby+Erlang implementation

[Ian Serlin]

I've been watching this list for a while now. I'm currently in Seattle for
the summer (I'm based in LA) and found SRB through some of the cool podcasts
you've done.

This group is what you make of it (or don't). You'll always run into people
that rub you the wrong way no matter where you are. There's no reason to
ever be satisfied with the status quo, but righteous indignation does
nothing. Get off the high horses, all of you, and refocus on what this group
is all about - a passion for one of the few things that makes our lives
easier and more enjoyable: ruby (and rails).

I look forward to hopefully meeting some of you in the coming weeks... and
having a good time. :)

I was thinking about finally making time to attend a SRB meeting. This 
post reminds me why I haven't. I have no time for such childishness, and 
frankly I have no interest in being associated with people who think or 
act this way.

I find this post deeply offensive, and I can't imagine why any woman 
with an ounce of self-respect (or any man for that matter) would want to 
be associated with a group that condoned this sort of talk.

Maybe next time.
