  Not that I do anything but lurk on this list, but I will be there. I
  have a tutorial session on securing sensitive data (and will be using
  Ruby as the example language of choice :)

  Also, on a somewhat related note, we (MySQL) are having our first
  annual user conference in about a month in San Jose.

  We have set aside tables for community projects - including Ruby. I
  have chatted with Sean Chittenden about getting some Ruby people to do
  booth duty, but thought that I should probably mention it here as
  well.

  If anyone is interested, please drop me a line off list.

Cheers!
