The BYU Ruby Users Group will be holding its February meeting on Wednesday the 8th at 7PM. We're meeting in room 120 of the Talmage Math & Computer Building (TMCB) -- see http://map.byu.edu/Map.html for a map of campus if you need it.
Eric Hodel is making a trip in from Seattle to talk about all kinds of deep Ruby things. He is a former presenter at RubyConf (RubyConf 2003 "Working in the Garden: Web Apps with Borges" and 2005 "Reimplementing Ruby"), and has his hands in a number of exciting Ruby (and Rails) projects: ZenTest, Ruby2C, ruby-growl, ParseTree, Borges, and the Rails Log Analyzer. He currently works for the Robot Co-op, helping build 43 Things. Eric was recently mentioned in Bruce Eckel's blog (http://www.artima.com/weblogs/viewpost.jsp?thread=146091). Bruce said that Eric has "done some very immersive work with the language. [He] live[s] and breathe[s] this stuff, which is exactly what I needed to get some actual insights into Ruby." This should be an awesome meeting for those who want to get a better handle on Ruby, whether you're a long time hacker, or just looking into the language. ----------------Special Thanks-------------------------- We'd like to thank Sleep Inn of Provo, who've graciously sponsored this meeting, and are providing accomodations for Eric on the night of the meeting. -- thanks, -pate ------------------------- _______________________________________________ UTOSC mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://plug.org/mailman/listinfo/utosc -- Topher Fischer System Administrator - TMCB 1140 GnuPG Fingerprint: 3597 1B8D C7A5 C5AF 2E19 EFF5 2FC3 BE99 D123 6674 [EMAIL PROTECTED]
