\*\*\* Registration now open \*\*\*

Scotland on Rails is pleased to announce that  
conference2008 is open for registration. There is a limit  
to the number of registrations we’re able to accept so  
we’d advise you to get in quickly 🙂

You can register at [http://scotlandonrails.com/register](http://scotlandonrails.com/register)

The conference will take place on April 4th and 5th in  
Edinburgh, Scotland and will feature speakers from the UK,  
Europe, US and New Zealand. A list of sessions and  
speakers is available at [http://scotlandonrails.com/talks](http://scotlandonrails.com/talks).  
We’re working on an accomodation list and this will be  
provided to registrants as early as possible.

We’re also please to announce that in the traditions of  
previous Ruby and Rails conferences, we’re planning a  
charity event on Thursday 3rd. This will feature several  
of the speakers from the main conference (including Jim  
Weirich, Bruce W. and Giles B. ) running extra  
sessions. All the money raised from that days event will  
be going to CHAS - The Childrens Hospice Association.  
([http://www.chas.org.uk](http://www.chas.org.uk)). We’ll be asking for a minimum  
75UKP donation to chas, which you can make at  
[http://www.justgiving.com/scotlandonrails](http://www.justgiving.com/scotlandonrails).

You can check the box when you register for the conference  
to indicate your intention to attend the charity day. We’d  
prefer if you used the same email address to sign up for  
the conference AND make your charity donation as that  
makes it easier for us to connect attendees with  
donations.

Thanks!

Alan, Graeme & Paul
