One thing I consistently love about the Ruby community is the kind vibe within development and communication. This is so nicely communicated; it brings me up to speed without talking down, it's conscientious of people's expectations, understandings, and diversity of needs. It doesn't try to be "done", and encourages ongoing community participation.
I know the Ruby community doesn't always live up the the "Ruby Is Nice" standard, but when it does, I just love the language that much more.

Like, yes - all those rules make for good advice for doing that, but they're rigid and aren't the right choice for all situations.
