We are very glad to announce the logos for two of our favorite Rails open source projects...

Simple Form :

And Devise :

We would like to congratulate our designer, Bruna Kochi , who was able to capture the essence of each project in their logos. We will write about their design process soon!

Hi everybody.

I'd like to announce that Devise v2.2.3, v2.1.3, v2.0.5 and v1.5.4 have been released with a security patch. Upgrade immediately unless you are using PostgreSQL or SQLite3. Users of all other databases require immediate upgrade.

Using a specially crafted request, an attacker could trick the MySQL type conversion code to return incorrect records. For some token values this could allow an attacker to bypass the proper checks.

In case you …

Strobe (company who was hiring Carl Lerche, Yehuda Katz and contracted Jose Valim) used to have an ActionPack based, mini stack but it was never released and apparently only Rails core members really knew what was going on there. Performance in vanilla Rails 3 are only now getting close to what you had with Rails 2 (and therefore far from the perf you were getting with Merb).

For this second part, I have reserved to talk about the winners of the Ruby Heroes Award. Since 2008, Gregg Pollack, from EnvyLabs, go upstage to deliver the award to 6 hard worker rubyists, who made a difference in the community.

Of the 6 winners, I was not able to talk with neither Xavier Noria, from Spain, nor Jose Valim, from Brazil. He was not attending the conference this year. But I still intend to record them, probably through video conference, and then add them to this gallery.
