*GORUCO 2013: Call for Proposals

The 2013 Gotham Ruby Conference (GORUCO) will be held on Saturday, June 8th
in New York City and is now accepting talk proposals at
http://bit.ly/goruco-2013-cfp.

Now in its sixth year, GORUCO <http://goruco.com/> is a one-day,
single-track technical conference aimed towards highly motivated
programmers interested in all things Ruby. With 250 attendees and hundreds
more watching the live stream, this is a great speaking opportunity for any
rubyist!

This year we will once again be accepting two talk formats:

* 45 minute full-length talks... or
* 10 minute micro-talks

Both formats include time for questions and discussion.

All speakers will receive free attendance to the event. In addition those
speakers selected for a full-length talk will receive:

* A $300 honorarium
* A $600 travel reimbursement if you live outside of the tri-state region

GORUCO believes in highlighting local talent and we reserve at least two
slots for local speakers. In the past, these slots have been less
competitive than the other talk slots, so if you live in the tri-state
region we strongly urge you to submit a proposal.

Finally, we will be recording all of the talks and making this video freely
available online. You should be okay with this if you are submitting a talk=
.

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us at
info@goruco.com and make sure you follow us on Twitter at
@goruco<http://twitter.com/goruco>for more updates.

Please submit all proposals at http://bit.ly/goruco-2013-cfp by 11:59:59.0
PM ET on March 14th, 2013.

Thanks, and we=92re looking forward to seeing you in June!*
