Here's my proposal:<br><br><span style="font-weight: bold;">Title:</span> Do we really need a plugin for tabbed navigation?<br><span style="font-weight: bold;">Synopsys:</span> In this presentation I'll show you the
<a href="http://blog.seesaw.it/pages/tabnav" target="_blank" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)">tabnav</a> plugin, and will discuss its implementation. This plugin rises a few questions on how we deal with view components. Is it ok to have configurable and ready-to-use widgets instead of rails helpers? How should those widgets be configured? Is it ok to write a specific DSL for each widget? As you see this presentation raises many questions, I'll give you my point of view and I'll try to stimulate a discussion around it.

Hello Paolo,<br>
<br>
My name is Joanna Go and I am part of the marketing team at Skills
Matter, where the LRUG meetings usually take place. LRUG has grown
tremendously and the last meeting they've had gathered more than 70
people. <br>
<br>
For this meeting, we already have one speaker and presentation lined
up. It would be great to have another presentation, so if you are
still interested in presenting, please send me the following and I will
post it on the LRUG registration page on our website:<br>
<br>
1. Title of presentation<br>
2. Brief synopsis of presentation<br>
3. A brief biography of yourself, and any interesting links you'd like
me to add.<br>
<br>
Best Regards,<br>
Joanna<br>

Drat! And here's me in London the Monday before with a half written<br>
presentation on an acts_as plugin I'm in the process of writing to
<br>
make working with nested resources easier.<br>
<br>
So, I would volunteer, but it's a long way from Gateshead.<br>
