Community spotlight
I was away last week but I feel that the repo was a busy bee swarm. Iain, Desmond, Louis, and Paul have been at it fixing bugs and delivering features. What an amazing community! Thank you for all your help!
Next up
We'll still have a few things to finish up and merge from last week so we'll get on them. Things like attaching the model to an action resource that will enable you to use belongs to and other dynamic fields on actions, skip the show view, custom policies, `action_policy` support, and more.
Wroclove.rb and How To Web
I'm going to speak at Wroclove.rb this weekend (Sept. 15-18) about how to package a Rails engine. I'd love to meet you if you're around. I'll have stickers and pins for everyone.
We're also going to have a booth at How To Web (Sept. 21-22) so come check us out if you're around.
Thank you
I just want to say that I'm humbled that we made such an amazing community. Thank you for your support, feedback, ideas, and contributions ❤️
Adrian and Paul 🤙
