Bosco So has located a promising new venue for the SF Ruby Meetup: There is WiFi access to the Internet as well as a large plasma TV/monitor for presentations. In addition to offering caffeine in various forms, they have sandwiches and desserts. Lastly, there are lots of dining opportunities nearby for apres-event chowing. -- http://ruby.meetup.com/6/events/4815812 Meanwhile, I''m continuing to schedule Beer & Pizza SIGs, allowing us to have comestibles, conversation, etc. My spouse Vicki and I really like Wild Pepper; see her review at http://www.cfcl.com/vlb/weblog/archives/000904.html so you can expect a fair sampling of "Beer and Egg Roll SIGs" to show up in the mix. Unlike Pasquales Pizzeria, Wild Pepper tends not to be a crowded venue. This is bad for them, but good for us (quiet environment, lots of available tables, etc.) Works... 1/10 6:15 pm The San Francisco Ruby Meetup Group will meet at the Golden Gate Perk cafe (401 Bush St.; SF, CA). For details and directions, see http://ruby.meetup.com/6/events/4815812 6:15 - general Q/A, problem solving, and caffeine 7:00 - talk on Model-based Documentation by (sigh) yours truly. 7:30 - back to caffeine and conversation 1/25 8:00 pm The Beer & Pizza SIG will meet at Wild Pepper (3601 26th St.; SF, CA). For details and directions, see http://cfcl/rdm/beer_and_pizza -r P.S. If you are planning a Ruby-related event in the SF Bay Area, be sure to let me know about it (early) so that I can list it! -- email: rdm@cfcl.com; phone: +1 650-873-7841 http://www.cfcl.com - Canta Forda Computer Laboratory http://www.cfcl.com/Meta - The FreeBSD Browser, Meta Project, etc.

I could probably put together a quick ditty on libxml, memcache, rails (penny-arcade.com), or PostgreSQL if folks are interested in those topics. -sc -- Sean Chittenden
