Addicted to Stable

Stable? In most developer communities, especially Ruby, stable seems nothing short of a curse word. Everyone seems to be addicted to new. I should know, as I once was. Heck, I even own addictedtonew.com.

Over the past few years, my sentiments have changed. Through my experience maintaining and growing a handful of applications, I have grown to respect and love stability.

This talk is jam packed with everything I have learned about building and growing a production application. Stories of mistakes and victories will abound.

	# task named environment that loads whatever is need to make cassanity available.
