In Memoriam: Noah Gibbs


Credit: Olivier Lacan The Ruby Community has lost one of its titans. Noah Gibbs contributed to our community to such a great an extent in so many different ways in such a long period of time.

During my years of Ruby Archaeology(via newsletter, talk, blog or conversation) I found it incredibly valuable to see what the community had to say about someone who they had lost. Helped facilitate weekly Scarpe meetings Single handedly wrote our massive wiki covering everything from Shoes history to reasoning behind our decisions. Mentored multiple engineers who joined us as an official Google Summer of Code Ruby Project All the while giving me the space as Maintainer to help set the vision and direction of the project, where he had every right to push me out Invented the SpaceShoes prototype, which would let coders write Shoes Ruby code for the browser directly in their HTML.
