  Any idea what state it&#39;ll be in? The link below is for May 2008, &lt;br&gt; which isn&#39;t really very useful. &lt;br&gt; There&#39;s also OSDC (&lt;a target=&quot;_blank&quot; rel=nofollow href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OSDC&quot;&gt;[link]&lt;/a&gt;) the open source &lt;br&gt; developer&#39;s conference - but again, it had very little ruby in last &lt;br&gt; year&#39;s schedule, it was mostly Perl and Python with a bit of Groovy

  Hi there, &lt;br&gt; &lt;p&gt;After the meeting on Thursday I instantly became enthusiastic about &lt;br&gt; the Ruby language and the Rails platform again, so thanks for that! &lt;br&gt; &lt;p&gt;Is anyone familiar with Hypertable (the open source Bigtable clone)? &lt;br&gt; &lt;p&gt;I always get the impression that rails (well, active record) tries &lt;br&gt; really really hard to turn a relational database (mysql, sqlite) into

  Hi Nuwan &lt;br&gt; Plenty of people are using Rails here - definitely seems to be growing &lt;br&gt; - it&#39;s being used in all manner of projects (e-commerce, SMS, &lt;br&gt; searching, hotel booking systems, online communities, etc). I think a &lt;br&gt; lot of people are using Rspec too - I am, at least. &lt;br&gt; I know there&#39;s at least a few people looking for good rails developers.
