Sydney RORO meetup 13/9 - Call for talks

[Steven Ringo]

Hi RORO peeps,

As Matt and Keith are away, I am doing duty...

Next week Tuesday 13 September is RORO meetup time again at the usual place:

Upstairs at http://www.trinitybar.com.au/ in Surry Hills

Please put yourself down for talks at the wiki: https://github.com/rails-oceania/roro/wiki

This week we also had the release of Rails 3.1 — Might be nice to have someone give a talk on something cool or new in Rails 3.1...

So far we have two lightning talks:

• Felix Tjandrawibawa — Well Grounded Rubyist is Awesome

• Steve Ringo — Template view inheritance in Rails 3.1

Tips, Tricks and Traps

I am also suggesting a new section of talks: Tips, Tricks and Traps

The idea is that you come up and talk for a minute or so about a tip, trick or trap you have found, or something that you do (or avoid doing) that might be useful to the community. Usually no prep or slides needed, just something you would like to share.

It could be a book, podcast, coding trick, keyboard shortcut, gem, or anything else... If you ever listen to the Ruby Rogues Podcast (http://rubyrogues.com/), they always have a "picks" section at the end of the podcast, which is the same idea.

I will also be talking about a new initiative to complement the awesome community: The RORO podcast.

Looking forward to the meetup.

See you there.

Steve
