<p><a href="http://pragmaticstudio.com/cgi-bin/pragstudio.cgi/RailsConf07.rdoc">Pragmatic Studio Blog: The Rails Community Cares </a></p>
<p>On Thursday, Pragmatic Studio gave an all-day Rails Guidebook tutorial and instead of charging for it we simply asked attendees to make a minimum donation to a charity wish list. Over 100 fine folks turned up and contributed over $12,000 to charity! This exceeded last year’s contributions by $4000, and we were incredibly pleased with the turnout. But then in typical Rails fashion, the community took this "framework" into their own (opinionated) hands to do something incredible.</p>
