Rails is a Ruby framework that includes everything needed to create web applications. This was our fourth Summer of Code participation, and in this post we'd like to tell you a bit about this year's projects.

Asset Source Maps (Andrei Istratii)

	The questions are too focused on Dear GitHub for my likening. My letter was a reaction to Dear GitHub, but not in itself that much about Dear GitHub.
