January Phoenix Ruby U. Group Meeting Date: Monday, January 14, 2008 Time: 6:15pm - Socializing 7:00pm - Official start of meeting Place: Rising Tide Software 4643 E. Thomas Rd, Suite #3 Phoenix, AZ 85018 (602) 714-1147 See [http://www.rubyaz.org](http://www.rubyaz.org) for details See [http://www.refactorphoenix.com/directions/](http://www.refactorphoenix.com/directions/) for directions to the RTS secret labs Topic: Let’s Explore Ruby 1.9! See what’s new, exciting, weird, and/or goofy in the latest Ruby release. James will give a presentation on Ruby 1.9 and demo assorted code. If you have something you’d like to try under 1.9, we can give it a whirl, too. The Phoenix Ruby U. Group meets at 7:00pm on the second Monday of each month, barring holidays. Details may be found at [www.rubyaz.org](http://www.rubyaz.org). After the meeting (~8:15pm) we plan on going out to dinner for more fun and fine conversation. Good news! The Havana Cafe on Camelback Rd. is still operating, so we expect to be heading there. If you can’t make the Ruby meeting, please consider joining us for dinner. (We talk about all sorts of things, not just Ruby, so it’s a good opportunity for geeks of all tribes to hang out.) Note: If you are thinking of going straight to the restaurant, please call me, James B., at the RTS offices so I can have the restaurant plan for the appropriate number of people. (It’s also good to check that we are in fact going to be where we think we’re going to be.) Thanks, – James B.
