[Boulder-Denver Ruby Group] Boulder-Denver Ruby Group - November 15th

[Marty Haught]

Hi Everyone,

I'm going to send the reminder on next week's meeting a bit earlier
than my typical three day notice.  The Boulder-Denver Ruby Group will
be meeting on Wednesday, November 15th at 6:30pm (directions below).
Doug Fales will lead off our meeting with a talk on plugins in Rails.
For our second half of the meeting we'll be conducting a series of
lightning talks.  I've already gotten several responses from some of
you on talks you'd like to do.  Let me go over some thoughts on how I
think we'll run this part.  Though in true Ruby fashion we will be
dynamic about conducting the talks so we can override the current
implementation at runtime. :)

Normally a lightning talk is pretty short, such as 5 minutes.  If your
talk is this short, great.  If you need a bit more time that's cool
too though they should be 15 minutes or less (If it's more you should
consider doing a full length talk at one of our future meetings).  I'd
also like to have some time after the talk for questions/discussion on
the subject.  We do have plenty of openings remaining for anyone who
hasn't emailed me yet.  If we get too many talks and run out of time,
we can continue another round of lightning talks next meeting if
there's enough interest.  I'm looking forward to the these shorter
talks.  It's great to hear what many of you are up to.

Finally, I will give out another pair of Ruby books compliments of
O'Reilly. I look forward to seeing you all there.

Cheers,
Marty
