Belfast Ruby - Old Website

This is the previous version of the Belfast Ruby website. The new website was launched at the Belfast Ruby meetup of March 2014.

We created a new repo for the new site, check it out or contribute code here - https://github.com/belfastruby/belfastruby-website

bash < <( curl http://rvm.beginrescueend.com/releases/rvm-install-head )
# Add this to the bottom of the file ~/.bash_profile
