Speaking of polls, for our next class what level of content would you be the most interested in working through together?

Examples in thread.

Granted that list is not comprehensive, and I will likely give sub-lists depending on what level folks are interested in as well as topics we can cover like perhaps RSpec, patterns, Rails, metaprogramming, or something else entirely.
