Starting Saturday at 10:30 the second Seattle.rb RubyGems Hackfest  
will begin!

We’ve got a fat stack of cash for spending on drinks and travel too!  
(If you’ll be traveling and expect reimbursement, please email back  
to the Hackfest list, removed\_email\_address@domain.invalid)

We’ll be focusing on improving RubyGems, but no RubyGems experience  
is required! At the last Hackfest we had one hacker who had all of  
two weeks of Ruby experience!

Where?  
The Robot Co-op, Inc.  
Map and address here: [rubyholic.com](http://rubyholic.com/groups/show/1)

When?  
Saturday: 10:30 AM until whenever, show up any time.  
Sunday: TBD

See you there!
