Many of us are excited about Ruby on Rails but there are still plenty of questions about performance, scalability and internationalization. Some companies have already decided to use RoR, and others are considering it. Is Ruby on Rails Ready for Business ? The Ruby on Rails Camp on November 9th in San Jose is an opportunity to exchange questions and opportunities on the topic of RoR''s suitability for real-world, real-business applications. Will it scale? Will I be able to hire developers? Will it persist? Will there be support? Will it be compatible with /*/? Will there be enough third-party components? ... are all items one has to consider. Logistics The RoR camp will be held at IBM''s Almaden Research Center on November 9, 2006, starting at 9am. Cost is 25$. Unconference Held in the unconference style, there will be no pre-planned speakers or agendas. As a first agenda item, there will be a call for session ideas that the participants themselves will give. So come prepared to share what you know! SpeedDemo There will also be a SpeedDemo session to show off your RoR application. You will have 5 minutes to present your application before the horn sounds and the groups move on. Each participant will vote on the best application! The applications don''t need to be commercially polished; we like seeing the personal stuff you hacked together too!

So there is no question on RoR''s suitability for real-world, real-business applications.

The picture was taken at the Chicago Rails Conference and it would be fun to identify the people in the picture.

Re: Ruby on Rails Camp - Nov 9th in San Jose, CA
$25? That''s more like it! Note to conference organizers -- get that Zed guy to speak. I think he''d upstage even why. He''d be like the Dennis Leary of IT. ;P Joe -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

Most likely this will be a FUD camp designed by IBM to make sure you don''t take away billions of dollars from their lucrative WebSphere business. Railers beware! I''ve seen this kind of thing before. It''s a trap for sure. Most likely they''ll beat you all with burlap sacks of onions until you agree to use only Java so that Global Services can get back to charging millions of dollars for 100 user internal sites.
