Picked up ‘Refactoring Databases: Evolutionary Database Design’ by Scott W. Ambler & Pramod J. Sadalage at the start of the month.

Ask one of the DBAs at work if he had read any book or articles by Scott Amber. His awnser was ‘Who’s that?’. Not an inspiring reply.

Think ‘Refactoring Databases’ is worth the effort. Looking forward to using some of the ideas when I start using Merb, next week.

Think I’ll get ‘Refactoring to Patterns’ or one or the enterprise pattern books in January.

In January, I think I’ll also try to start pulling a Canberra Ruby group together. Will start with a Coffee get together with the 2 other Canberra guys I meet at the RailsCamp2 at Bacchus March and go from there.
