Subject: [ruby-talk:26698] What? No Ruby at the Lightweight Languages Conference at MIT?

Any reason for why Ruby was not represented at the recent LL1
conferences at MIT? Python and Perl were, and so was Curl. Even a
3-week old language, Paul Graham's Arc, was heard, and apparently
impressed a lot.

Simon Cozens, a Perlman, who was an attendee has a nice one-sentence
comment about Ruby: "Sadly, few people seemed to have heard much about
Ruby, something they will probably come to regret in time."

Andy, Dave, and Matz too busy?
