Hi -- Registration for RubyConf 2006 is still scheduled to open on August 2, in the early evening Pacific (US West Coast) time. Also, there's more info at http://www.rubycentral.org/conference (e.g., the fact that this year we're only taking credit cards, etc.). David P.S. Any LA area Rubyists around? I'll be there this week doing Rails training. -- http://www.rubypowerandlight.com => Ruby/Rails training & consultancy ----> SEE SPECIAL DEAL FOR RUBY/RAILS USERS GROUPS! <----- http://dablog.rubypal.com => D[avid ]A[. ]B[lack's][ Web]log http://www.manning.com/black => book, Ruby for Rails http://www.rubycentral.org => Ruby Central, Inc.
