[LRUG] Next LRUG Meeting - 11th June

I'm sure it won't be too hard to watch those RejectConf videos by Monday,
and I have copious notes from RailsConf that I keep meaning to finish
writing up and blog.  I could take notes on the RejectConf stuff and then
distil both down to a 5-minute recap for Monday.  That said, maybe I missed
all the ground-breaking sessions, but I'm not sure anything of note actually
happened or was announced/released at RailsConf this time round, (with the
exception of RSpec 1.0 which I don't use).  Of course maybe all the good
things happened at RejectConf - I shall find out.

So anyone with a more up-beat opinion of RailsConf (and this could be from
reading all the coverage, rather than being there) might want to provide a
counter-point to my miserablist attitude.
