No worries - I would have left a comment on your post, but I didn't have an account to sign in with, and wasn't sure if maybe they had raised an additional $50K outside of Kickstarter.
Just wanted to say good on you for fixing bugs and contributing to Diaspora! Unfortunately I don't even know enough Ruby to understand what I'm looking at, but I'm excited about the project - they've definitely got a good resource in you! Is there any indication that they switched to Ruby during this Summer? I swear it was originally going to be in PHP, but I can't find any mention of that now. Could the oversights in the code be due to this being the first piece of Ruby the team has written?
They won't have me for long; I have my own projects to work on. Hackety Hack is more important to me, by far.
I also vaguely remember that it was supposed to be in PHP as well, and several other people have mentioned that. I can't find a source...
It could be the reason, but things like "make sure if you're trying to delete a photo, it's yours" is something that transcends implementation languages, you know?
Maybe they'd even be open to hiring you as a paid consultant, since they are now using Ruby, and seemingly are willing to invest in improving their project.
