Subject: [ANN] Lone Star Ruby Conference 6 - Call for Speakers


Lone Star Ruby Conference 6
(Thu-Sat) August 9-11, 2012
Norris Conference Center
Austin, TX

Warm greetings from the Lone Star Ruby Foundation.

The sixth annual LONE STAR RUBY CONFERENCE
is getting under way and the call for speakers
is offically open.

LSRC is a three day combo 'training + dual-track' 
Ruby Conference held in the capital city of the
Lone Star State, Austin, TX.

LSRC 6 (we were going to call it LSRC VI, but emacs 
fans objected) is guaranteed to provide you with
new knowledge, new insights and a new love for
your favorite development language, Ruby. And if 
that wasn't enough, you'll also get a heapin'
plate full of the best BBQ in Texas -- and great 
company to share it with.

And while your're enjoying that plate of BBQ 
this year, you will be hearing keynotes from 

  Yukihiro "Matz" Matsumoto

and

  Robert C. Martin, a.k.a. Uncle Bob
  
You're sure to have an educational and entertaining time.

We invite you to be a part of LSRC 6 and share your
knowledge, success and expertise by submitting
a speaking proposal at:

    http://lonestarrubyconf.com/call-for-papers

for a 40-minute talk.

Here are just a few sample topics:

 - Web Development with Ruby
 - Embedded Development with Ruby
 - Telephony Development with Ruby
 - Ruby Coding Best Practices
 - Developer Tools (Textmate, Vi, emac)
 - Rails3 - Anything
 - Ruby Internals, Meta Programming
 - CoffeeScript, Javascript
 - SQL and Non-SQL databases
 - Ruby in the Enterprise
 - Ruby in Small Business
 - iPhone/iPad/Mobile development with MacRuby/Ruby 
 - Testing

You name it. If it is Ruby related, we want to hear from you.
(Proposals are due midnight, Sunday, June 10, 2012.)

We look forward to seeing you at the conference in August.
Please feel free to email us with your suggestions on
how we can make this your perfect conference.

Registration for LSRC 6 will open in early June.

See you in Austin in August!
