The second annual Lone Star Ruby Conference is heating up and right  
around the corner, running for three days, September 4-6 in Austin, TX.

The Lone Star Ruby Conference is dedicated to promoting and teaching  
about the Ruby P.ming Language. Whether you are interested in  
Web or GUI frameworks, Databases or Embedded Applications, if it  
involves Ruby, then you may find it at LSRC. LSRC is dedicated to  
bringing you the best of what the Ruby community has to offer.

This year LSRC offers a full day of advanced training on Thursday in  
addition to the two days of Ruby-packed, dual-tract speaking sessions  
on Friday and Saturday, along with a keynote by Evan P.[1], the  
father of Rubinius[2].

And as if that wasn’t enough, the author of Ruby,  
Yukihiro M.[3] (a.k.a. Matz), will be keynoting the conference.  
This is your opportunity to hear from the author of Ruby, to ask  
him questions, and to hang out for a few days with one of the  
greatest language designers around.
