The Toronto Ruby User’s Group is having its first Hackathon tomorrow at the Tucows offices. Tomorrow’s goal is to implement the functionality of libarchive and libtar as both a pure-Ruby version and as Ruby/C bindings to the libarchive and libtar libraries.
The hackathon will take place from 10:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. at the Tucows offices (96 Mowat Avenue, near the corner of King and Dufferin). Ruby local hero Austin Ziegler will provide the pizza; Yours Truly is the Tucows host. If you’d like to participate, sign up on the wiki!
