Ok strategy:

• today code kata: Lets solve the roman-numerals tdd style
  • You can only write code if you have a test
  • more kata http://codekata.com/kata/kata04-data-munging/
  • also http://codekata.com/
  • You should only make the test pass with the least amount of work possible, ie the following is the simplest solution if the input in the test is only X

numeral = "X"

def parse_roman glyph
   10
end

• next time: create a client to a webservice tdd style
  • decide on a webservice (guardian?)
• after: create a server replacement for the webservice
  • what resouces do we need to make this work? Rails? Books? More?
