[Brug-talk] FOSDEM

[Peter Vanbroekhoven]

Hi all,

One of the things we should consider is to try and get a Ruby/Rails
track at FOSDEM, and if there is interest in it, a developer's room. We
can also consider running a booth there.

I think this is a great opportunity to advertise our user group, find
new members, and basically give us a kick-start.

We need proposals for speakers. DHH is an obvious one, but we need more.
So let us know about your heroes and what you want them to talk about!

It would be nice if by then we have a logo to put on t-shirts that we
can wear there. The small logo can go on the front, a bigger, more
elaborate one can go on the back. If we have a booth, we can show
photographs of the meetings, possible a video even; we can distribute
information about BRUG, and we could hand out stickers with the logo and
simplified contact information.

This seems like *the* occasion to expand out Ruby user group. We have to
get kicking though because FOSDEM is only 4 and a half months away and
we don't want to miss the boat. The call for speakers went out about one
and a half month ago, so I expect we don't have much time.
