Gotham Ruby Conference, a one-day, single-track event in New York City  
dedicated to everything Ruby, is now accepting proposal papers. This  
conference will be held on Saturday, April 21st in the Chelsea  
headquarters of Google, our hosts for the day.

The conference highlights six select speakers from the Ruby world,  
three of whom will be Rubyists from the Tri-State area (New York, New  
Jersey and Connecticut), and will also have a round of lightning  
talks. We invite anyone who can make their way to New York City on  
4/21 to submit a proposal as this will be a premier event in one of  
the greatest cities of the world. All track speakers will be provided  
a free attendance to the event and an honorarium. Speakers from  
outside the region will also be provided up to a $200 travel  
reimbursement.

A good proposal paper will include:

- A explanation or outline of your talk.
- A short biographical statement about you and your involvement in the  
Ruby community.

Your proposal does not need to be long, but it should give us the  
information necessary to evaluate your talk.

Please send all papers to papers goruco com by 12:00 AM EST  
on March 1st. You should receive confirmation that we have received  
your proposal within 48 hours of submitting it.

If you have any questions about the proposal process or other  
conference related questions, please email info goruco com.
