Hello everyone, just letting anyone in Southern Connecticut or those  
who feel like driving to North Haven know that we’re having a meeting  
tomorrow night at Innovation Software Group.

The meeting officially starts at 7pm, but Gary W. will be helping  
newbies get up to speed starting at 6:30. He will be hitting a few  
topics that are common newbie questions, including the ever present  
Symbols vs. Strings thing that most new Rubyists wonder about.

I’ll be doing a talk on all the things you need to do to get a project  
packaged and out the door as a release. I very well might be using  
Ruport as my example, because 0.3.0 needs to get out the door before  
it causes me to fail some finals! 🙂 (Besides that, it’s almost ready  
)

After this talk, we’ll have plenty of time for open discussion and  
other activities suitable for vagabonds and the like.

For full details on the meeting, including driving directions, check

Hope to see you there!
