[LRUG] London RoR Conference, July '09 ?

[Pat Allan]

Just to add to this - I know there's plans for a second UK Rails Camp  
underway, very likely for August - and in a more regional space,  
there's apparently going to be a European Rails Conference that isn't  
RailsConf EU (since that's not happening this year).

Not saying your idea isn't a good one, just letting you know what else  
is happening.
