I thought this was going to be an App for setting up / planning Group Dates, and I thought that was a really cool idea! :)

Yes, I expected a FOSS doodle.com replacement

The words 'ruby' or 'library' aren't mentioned anywhere on the page, yet this is a ruby library.

+1 I was half expecting a dating app before clicking the link. I would have fully expected that if it wasn't for the domain providing a hint.

It says that it works with Rails and the installation instructions mention 'gem'. It's obvious for the core target that it's a ruby library.

I just added the Rails part :-)

At the same time it should probably make itself as easy to find on google as possible.

Good point. I'll add it.

There should be a "Show HN" RFC for submission titles. Needs "Show HN:" + [name of project] + [10 words explaining what it's about], IMO.

I love that you are working to solve this problem. Grouping by date is a requirement across every project I've been involved with. Yet I find it never fails to frustrate me. Surely it could be simplified. Do professional developers share my frustration (I'm a hobbiest)?

Terrific name by the way!

Looks interesting. I've been meaning to cobble something similar together for awhile as I keep running into this problem. Thankfully, now I don't have too.

Thanks!

Anyone else expecting a grouper clone and got a library?
