• RMagick: One project is having new RMagick problems. Some image uploading and transformations are hanging the Mongrel process. Some are suggesting explicitly calling GC.start after heavy RMagick use. We’ll also check the version and insure that it’s 1.13.

  Total Stand-up Meeting Time: About 19 minutes.
