Going to RailsConf 2008

Prototype Scroller Object Recently an old friend, David Moffitt, asked me to tweak some Javascript I wrote for him and his company GTTS over a year ago. Looking at it again after such a long time was scary. The code was terrible. All functions, no classes, just a mess. I rewrote it...
Mack Framework The Mack Framework is a pretty nifty combination of Rails, Merb and many other Ruby frameworks. It's built off Rack and therefore should be simple to deploy. I really want to work with it, but what to do? Does anyone have any ideas? I need a project....
