In The Brain of Peter Mounce: Rake.NET
Rake.NET
In this podcast, Peter Mounce talks about using Ruby rake to aid with automating .NET software builds - stating that a build script should use a scripting language, because XML hurts too much. Peter walked through the basics of what rake allows one to do; tasks, file-tasks, and dependencies. He demonstrates a build script leveraging the rake-dotnet gem and convention over configuration, where tasks do the heavy lifting so you don't have to.

ABOUT PETER MOUNCE
Pete is a software developer, currently working for an internet TV start-up. He tries to abide by the axiom "never make a human do a computer's job" where-ever possible, and takes great pleasure in using sharp tools.
