Job: Community Management und Assistenz im Coworking Space
Job: Community Management und Assistenz im Coworking Space
Hallo wir sind upstream. Eigentlich entwickeln wir Software im Internet, doch das hat uns nicht gereicht. Darum betreiben wir nebenbei einen Coworking Space in Kreuzberg - genannt co.up. In unserem Space arbeiten viele interessante Menschen, vor allem Webentwickler, Designer und Usability-Experten. Durch die Begegnung und Zusammenarbeit mit diesen Menschen sind viele spannende Projekte entstanden. Die Arbeit, die wir mit der Organisation des Space, der Menschen und Events haben, ist mit der Zeit immer weiter angewachsen. Dafür suchen wir dich.
Für etwas 10 Stunden pro Woche brauchen wir deine Hilfe bei folgenden Aufgaben:
* Coworkern bei Problemen helfen, neue Coworker einweisen
* Unsere Coworker und alle, die sich für unsere Projekte interessieren, mit Informationen versorgen
* Events organisieren (z.B. Coworker Meetings, Workshops, User Groups)
* Dich an der Verbesserung/Verschönerung des Space beteiligen
The Keynote Speakers
We are super excited to announce our two EuRuKo keynote speakers
* Yukihiro Matsumoto (Matz)
* Paul Campbell
Having the creator of the Ruby language as a speaker is a great honor for us. His regular appearance at the EuRuKo speaks of his dedication to the community while his humble and inspiring talks always left a lasting impression. Matz’s presentation at last year’s EuRuKo was one of the highlights and his “We are Blave” slide became legendary.
Paul is an amazingly talented speaker and his slide style make his talks even more exceptional. He has impressed us where ever we saw him speaking throughout the last year and we are anxious to see what he has prepared for us this time.

# to run rails 3.0 with 1.9.2 you can use the 1.9.2 beta stack like this
heroku create --stack bamboo-mri-1.9.2 --remote trybamboo
We have discovered the cause of [bug], and it is both simple and surprising.
Upon investigation, we were stunned to find that the [function] is totally wrong.
