Details about us and a link to our CFP form are available here http://www.rubynation.org/ RubyNation is an annual two-day Ruby conference held in Washington, DC. This is our seventh year and we are still going strong with 240 attendees last year! Last year we moved to the awesome Silver Spring Civic Building, just one metro stop outside of DC, in Silver Spring, MD. The SSCB is a great venue for both the speakers and the attendees!

Hi Gary, Is there any interest in the usage of Ruby on the JVM ala JRuby? I am the developer of HiveMind (crudzilla.com) ,which is a web app platform for the JVM that happens to support ruby via the JRuby implementation. Here's a quick usage screencast: http://crudzilla.com/assets/img/info-graphics/lang-demo.gif I am not a ruby developer myself but I would be interested in discussing usage of ruby on HiveMind and the JVM in general if that is something you guys would be interested in. I am in Baltimore so the location is convenient:) -Edmond
