Josh, Count me in for any help or assistance you might need. A wiki-esque development of the curriculum is a great idea, a google doc would probably suffice. ...
I would be glad to teach a session or two. How many session time slots are there going to be? I am open to suggestions for topics. Anthony Crumley On Thu,...
Perhaps someone would like to speak on a more advanced topic related to Ruby/Rails, Merb... etc. I would think a the biggest audience for the ruby track would...
I agree ... I think people have seen enough of the scaffold/rails intro demos .... I think more advanced and real world demos would be good. I would more than...
A good topic might be how to increase productivity as you program Ruby/Rails. Certainly the framework addresses some of that, but many potential users shy away...

I am a bit ignorant on VIM - I used it before on UNIX for PERL/Java etc but a) can you run VIM on a PC now, and b) does VIM have project management features...
Harris, you can skip this email if it pleases you :) Yan: *Gvim* runs fine on a pc in a windowed environment, and *cream* makes it look very good doing so...
