[LRUG] Protocol question

> I don't know that there are any "rules of the list" beyond just being reasonable, so I think this is probably okay, and regardless, you've done it now!

Brilliant: thank you. Although I've had a couple of off-list replies
already (totally impressed with that!), I'll post what I'm looking for
here, so that people can tell if it's of interest or not.

Basically, although I'm well-versed in setting up Ruby on Ubuntu, one
of my clients is running Snow Leopard on Macs and the install is
confounding all of us. We're looking for someone who can come in and
set up Ruby 1.8.7 (not going to 1.9 just yet), Rails latest (2.3.5 I
guess: not quite ready for 3.0) and get it to talk nicely to MySQL on
4 or 5 different machines.

If it's of interest, do drop me a line directly.

Thanks!

Terry
