  A day before or after OSCON would be best for me.

  As for topics, I would love to have sessions or discussions on:
  
    The Design and Structure of the Ruby Source
	(self explanatory, I hope)
	
	Design Idioms in Ruby
	A session or workgroup where expert Ruby programmers take us through
	some of the concepts/patterns/idiomatic forms that they use when
	developing
	
Cheers!
