Hello,  
I’m proud to announce the first ever regional Ruby conference in the  
south: Ruby Hoedown 2007. Ruby Hoedown, a joint effort between  
Raleigh.rb, Atlanta.rb, and myself, is going to be held at the Red Hat  
HQ in Raleigh, NC on August 10-11, 2007.

[http://www.rubyhoedown.com/](http://www.rubyhoedown.com/)

We are inviting two speakers, which we are still in the process of  
acquiring, and the rest will be chosen from proposals from the  
soon-to-be-open call for participation. Speakers will be given travel  
stipends, free admission, and, most likely, a hug.

Registration attendance is limited to 150 people due to facility  
limitations, but you’ll be able to get your very own ticket starting  
June 11 for an undetermined yet guaranteed affordable price.

To keep up with updates and such, join our announcement list using the  
form at [http://www.rubyhoedown.com/](http://www.rubyhoedown.com/) (or [http://www.rubyhoedown.org/](http://www.rubyhoedown.org/) or  
[http://www.rubyhoedown.info/](http://www.rubyhoedown.info/) ; it’s really up to you).

Looking forward to seeing you guys and girls there. 🙂

Thanks!  
Jeremy
