Last monday Sam expressed his desire to have meetings including computers and coding, instead of beer and flirting with the waitress. Why can't we produce something, maybe code, like the people at seattle.rb. How do other people setup their code repositories. Let's do the gitjour, gemjour, appjour orgy thing!
So we would like to schedule a new kind of regular event. A language agnostic / bring all you coding friends / Ruby versus Python versus Perl versus Groovy versus Java versus Lisp versus Clojure versus VB versus JavaScript versus Knitting / look what I can do / help how can I / should I - meeting for the coding community of Amsterdam. Sounds ambitious? It is! Will it be fun? If you like coding it should be!
We propose to meet every second monday of the month in the public library near central station around 18:00 at the top floor. Here you can get food and look for the table with people pointing at computer screens going "aaaaah". There's free wifi too in the library but you have to sign up for it downstairs at the service desk.
So the first meeting will be at the 8th of december. Does anybody have any comments on this before we start making the noise to get people to participate?

At last monday's meeting I promised to set up an amsterdam.rb wiki.
Feel free to use it in any way you like, collaborating on project
ideas, sharing interesting links etc.

Sam had lots of cool things to show, including Ioke. Ioke is based on
IO.
IO has futures. Ruby did not have futures before tonight, only
Thread#value.
We coded a simple future function in Ruby, so now Ruby does have
futures.

I've browsing your code before leaving for work and it is really
interesting.
Unfortunately I was in a rush to leave (to catch the bus...), but I'll
take some time to read about Io/Ioke. Probably there are some more
ideas that have not been implemented in Ruby... Maybe we can create a
framework out of it! Maybe I'm writing non-sense.
Only time will tell.
Best regards,
Javier.-
