**Please** don't write "RUBY", especially if you're going to give and
publicize a conference.  I understand the whole thing about language
being elastic, etc., but you'd be doing a real disservice to a lot of
people (including, but not limited to, Matz) by introducing this
error, and the resultant confusion, into general Ruby discourse.
