When I said "They aren't going to know HTML, XML, Java, C++, etc.".. I meant that I knew that in advance, not that no mainframe people know those things. :) I only botched a couple of things, really.. one of which was forgetting to show off Rake. RDoc and Test/Unit were bigger hits than I thought they would be. At the end of the day, I hope I managed to make them interested in the topic, rather than outright afraid of it or confused by it. Hopefully they'll bring me back, and I can do a more hands-on Ruby session.
