I didn't know that Jim had died. I think I may have been on vacation when the news would have broken. His work on Ruby Koans helped me tremendously when learning Ruby. And of course there's rake. This sort of thing feels like an appropriate match to his own contributions to the community. I couldn't give much, but hopefully my little bit can help. A few notes for the developers of the page: the form fields are wonky on Firefox (upstream on Aurora at least) and I'd suggest a country field for non-Americans.

Thank you. I also learned ruby with the ruby koans and was lucky enough to meet him through our local ruby community and eventually end up working with him. His other free and open-source educational work was git immersion: http://gitimmersion.com/ http://gitimmersion.com/ which you might like. Also, here's one of my favorite practices to watch Jim do & to practice as well: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ronr_CG8x0Y http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ronr_CG8x0Y Thanks for the bug report, I'm opening an issue. Can you email me a screenshot? email address in profile.
