Practice project
in teams of 2 or 3, build a simple quick quote workflow application in Rails. there will be prizes!
Schedule
management has agreed to allocate 2 hours during each work week for collaboration (beyond that, extracurricular work isn't required but very much encouraged!)
we'll meet again as a group on Thurs., June 30th, 2011 to review / award prizes. there will be pizza!
let's plan to meet (informally) during lunch each week between now and then. we can discuss whatever's on your mind: questions, comments, roadblocks, achievements, tips/tricks, etc. those dates are:
Thurs., June 2nd, 2011
Thurs., June 9th, 2011
Thurs., June 16th, 2011

Objectives
by the end of the 5 weeks, the application should:
1) be able to create, read, update & delete quotes
2) be able to assign a quote to a person for approval
3) capture estimated number of hours
4) capture estimated price
5) quotes should be in 1 of these 3 states: pending, approved, completed
Bonus points for:
