ENTERPRISE RUBY STUDIO Announcing a new offering from Pragmatic Studio: An Enterprise Ruby Studio to be held September 11-13 in Boston, MA. Learn how to use the power and expressiveness of Ruby, and how to use it as your enterprise “glue.” * * * ## Use Ruby for Enterprise Software Development Enterprise software development is often about integrating information from multiple systems, usually built with disparate technologies, in order to increase the value of both the applications you?re building today and the longevity of your existing applications, resources, and data. An in-depth knowledge of Ruby, a cross-platform, object-oriented programming language, will allow you to tie such systems together, and do so with incredible flexibility. * * * ## Learn Advanced Ruby Features You?ll also gain hands-on experience using metaprogramming, domain specific languages, LDAP, XML, web services, and other advanced Ruby features. * * * ## Learn From Pros With extensive experience using Java, .NET, _and_ Ruby, Justin Gehtland and Stu Halloway really understand the enterprise landscape. They bring diverse backgrounds to this Studio to help you choose the best tool for the job. In addition to their ongoing client work, they are the authors of the upcoming book “Rails for Java Programmers” and the creators of the open source Streamlined framework. * * * ## Register Sign up by July 31st for a $200 early registration discount.

I was all set to rant about freeloaders taking advantage of the PragProgs rep, but decided to double check the PragProg site. Lucky for me!
