Greetings from Texas!
The second annual Lone Star Rubyconf is revving
up and scheduled for Sep 4-6 in Austin, TX.
The conference is featuring the creator of
Ruby, Matz, and many other luminaries.
This year we have added an optional day of
hands-on training (Thu) in addition to two days of action
packed ruby filled sessions (Fri, Sat).
The conference is now accepting
proposals
for both speaking sessions and training sessions.
See you in Austin in September!
