Woah, I totally spaced that we have a meeting next week! This is your
notice, but it's a little shorter than normal. Sorry!

The Okie Rubyists will gather Wednesday the 11th, at the Edmond Public
Library at our normal time of 6:30 PM.

I'm not sure what we should talk about this time. Does anyone have
any content they would like to present?

I have been busy working on my upcoming training, so I don't have
anything ready myself. Well, unless you all want to be guinea pigs
for some subsection of my training.

Thoughts?

Wednesday? Isn't it usually on Thursday? Guess I can make it this time.

I'm down for any sort of a testing presentation, assuming anyone cares
about RSpec, Shoulda, Cucumber, Webrat or Metric_fu. I could probably
probably manage something related to XML, OpenID, or OAuth too.

I'd love to learn more about rack, thin or unicorn if anyone's brainy
about that. Or cloudkit, that sounds very nifty.

When's that starting, anyway? My friend wants to know if he'll earn a
certification. I'm hoping he's kidding.

Yes, it's on Wednesday this time.

Tell me Joseph, what usually keeps you away on Thursdays?

This makes you my new best friend. I'm good with any or all of
that. :) Take your pick.

Grant, your our resident Unicorn expert aren't you? I too would love
to know more about it. Can we bribe you into showing us some stuff?

University. Non-negotiable until the end of the semester.

I'll do a BDD in Rails overview. How long?

I'm brewing beer tomorrow, if that's any incentive.

I will show off the Unicorn and how to ride it. No downtime deploys FTW.
