Hey Hal,

Ruby is alive and well over here :)  We have a very vibrant collection of
folks in Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane, Canberra and Perth too.

We usually meet up in our respective cities and afaik there's not been plans
for a ruby conf here.

Not that the thought hasn't crossed my mind, but it's quite a long way for
visitors from other countries to attend.  I'd personally love to see an
australian ruby conf go down.  There's a _lot_ of talent over here, and a
lot of passionate people involved in the community.

I've included the ROR oceania group on this reply so more people will see
this email.

Cheers
Daniel
