PDX.rb presents…

FOSCON II: The Ruby Rodeo!

We invite you to join us for a set of presentations on Ruby programming
and Ruby culture. Confirmed speakers include:

  • Alex Bunardzic
  • Lucas Carlson
  • Topher Cyll
  • Ryan D.
  • Geoffrey Grosenbach

If you didn’t catch it last year, FOSCON is a free and fun gathering of
Ruby fans held in the evening during O’Reilly’s Open Source Convention.
The speakers will be discussing a wide range of topics of interest to
the Ruby community. And in case that wasn’t enough, pizza will be
provided! We look forward to seeing you there.
