[LRUG] May Meeting - Specifics

[Peter Jones]

Here is the final list of potential mentors and
mentorees.

Potential Mentors:
1. Murray Steele
2. James Adam
3. Eleanor (Ruby)
4. Anthony Green*
5. Paul Ardeleanu
6. Stephen Bartholomew

* Can act as a 'help desk' for newbies rather than a 
mentor i.e. point them in the direction of good books,
blogs, podcasts etc.

Mentorees
1. Suw Charman (RoR plus some basic Ruby)
2. Peter Jones (RoR plus some basic Ruby)
3. Ed Davey (Ruby and possibly some RoR)
4. Eran Ben Shabbat (RoR in order to learn Ruby)
5. Alex Pounds (RoR)
6. Anthony Green
7. Daniel Todd
8. Alec Ross

I look forward to finding out if there is a match
between the expectations of individuals from each
group at the meeting.

Peter.
