[Boulder Ruby Group] BRG - February Meeting Reminder - Feb 20th

[Marty Haught]

Here's the reminder email for tomorrow's BoulderRuby meeting.  Our
February meeting will be this Wednesday, the 20th, at 6:30pm
(directions below).  Tony Arcieri will be presenting on Revactor, his
new Ruby library of the Actor model implementation in Ruby 1.9. The
Actor model is an approach to programming using concurrent components
which communicate using message passing. It's seen success in
languages like Erlang and Scala, and now it can be used with Ruby. The
talk will cover the basics of using Revactor to build concurrent
programs, and also cover the future of Actors in Ruby, particularly
how they can be used with Rubinius to let your programs scale
seamlessly across multi-core CPUs.

Tim Pease will do the second talk on Webby and how to build better
code by stealing.  If I don't forget, I'll bring some books to give
away.  Additionally, we'll have a usual mingle time with food between
the talks.  Afterwards, everyone is welcome to hang out and chat at
the local pub as is our after meeting tradition.  Hope to see you all
there.

Cheers,
Marty Haught
