Instead of multiple inheritance, Ruby has single inheritance
classes... and modules. Sinatra defines a module called
Sinatra::Helpers that is included in each view, and provides a
convenient syntax for you to add methods to that module. You should
be able to achieve the same effect (with less magic) by adding methods
directly to Sinatra::Helpers, thus:
module Sinatra::Helpers
def pmcs
ASF::Committee.pmcs.map(&:name).sort
end
def ppmcs
ASF::Podling.list
.select {|podling| podling.status == 'current'}
.map(&:name).sort
end
end
