Subject: RE: RubyConf 2002

Last year was on the east coast...well in Florida which is kind of the
east coast ;-)  Really, the conference is where it is because that is
where OOPSLA (http://oopsla.acm.org/) is being held (right after
RubyConf 2002).  The Ruby conference *preceeds* OOPSLA because we are
*ahead* of those other langauges ;-)

I for one am really looking forward to this year.  Lots of stuff to show
and talk about...the best part of last year was (like this list) all the
people...what a great crowd!

I am on the docket to present the state of the FreeRIDE project
(www.rubyide.org).  The FreeRIDE team is going into overtime to get
something worthy of this community by the conference (wish us luck :-)

I hope as many people as possible make a effort to attend...it will not
be a disappointment.

Regards,

Rich
