Next Meeting: Speakers Wanted
posted by Mathieu Balez
First off, the next Montreal on Rails meeting will be on Tuesday, September 4th. Mark your calendars and go RSVP now. Note that we’ve moved the start time to 6:45 PM.
Despite some holidays and out-of-town-ness the planning effort for this next meeting is now in full swing. We’ve had some tepid interest from potential presenters, but we do not yet have 2 confirmed speakers on deck for the September meetup.
This means, you should give a talk!
It’s easy. You love Rails, and so will everyone else in the room. All you have to do is share your little domain of expertise, and if don’t have a particular domain of expertise, that’s OK, because we’re always looking for presentations appropriate for a beginner audience as well.
If you’re interested in speaking on any RoR-related topic, do shoot us an email.
An administrative note, we’ll be running this meeting in the same McGill classroom again. We’ll see what the turnout is like, and make a decision about future space options. We’ve investigated some other possibilities, which we’ll bring up for discussion.

Everyone should give a talk it’s super fun.
But it’s getting annoying not being able to go to the grocery without sunglasses, a giant cowboy hat and a black moustache curved with ear wax. Haaa, that’s the life of a MoR speaker!

I put my name in for a presentation, let’s hope someone else does too because I’m neither Steve Jobs, nor Steve Ballmer.

I would love to present at #3. Title would be something like Javascript for Rails.
#2 is just a bit too early for me especially with a deadline fast approaching at work.

I’d like to do a presentation on implementing the Ext javascript library (www.extjs.com) with RoR.
