Hi everybody, We were 14 to represent SDRuby at RailsConf 2008 and really had a great time. I'm excited to let you know that Yehuda Kats officially announced Merb Camp 2008 in San Diego during his Merb talk!
Engine Yard is supporting us in the planning of the event and I was told that Yehuda Kats and Ezra will more than likely come and present at the very first Merb Camp. I think it's a great occasion for our community and I'm stoked by the support we received so far. We are looking at organizing the event Oct 11-12, here in America's Finest city: San Diego. However we will need the help of the community. First thing first, we need a venue. We were thinking of a venue accomdating around 250 people, if possible downtown so people coming from far away can find hotels/bars/food close by. If you have any suggestions, please let us know. (also, if you have any connections will theaters downtown, please let us know) Also even though we are planning an unconference, we would like to have an idea of who will be willing to talk and the topics they will want to cover. We'll setup a wiki so people will be able to "register" their talks as we'll get closer to the event. Finally, if you are interested in helping, come and join us this Thursday after our usual monthly meeting. -Matt p.s: website coming up soon --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ SD Ruby mailing list [email protected] http://groups.google.com/group/sdruby -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
