Thanks for the welcome, Mike. I have a question for you.

I have a couple job opportunities for enterprise RoR product development. Is there a manner, place or etiquette for letting folks know about them here?

They are very cool jobs and my preference is to avoid a cattle call. Let me know.

Regards,

Rick
