I'm working directly with a DevBootcamp grad and would be happy to talk about the experience some.

  In what capacity are you working with the devbootcamp grad? What kind of hiring / working experiences have you had with other developers? On a surface glance, it seems like you develop rails MVP's via coder.ly?

    In this case, I'm building out a Rails MVP for a client wherein I'm involved in the short term. I'm pairing with the DevBootcamp grad and teaching him my process as we go and assigning smaller tasks to him. In that sense he's a very junior developer, and I work as both a consultant hacking away on product and a trainer. It's still early, but it's working well so far. I've worked as product lead or product manager in small and mid-sized companies and have had to hire developers in PHP, .NET, and Rails shops. And yes, I've been trying to focus on Rails as of late.

      [Edit] Nevermind. Found answer: http://ventureforamerica.org/ http://ventureforamerica.org/ An informal DevBootcamp-like fellowship like the one above is the solution for some Gen Y kids. They can properly contribute to https://www.hackerschool.com/ https://www.hackerschool.com/ and cut formal education time.
