<br>
The details for the August meeting are available now: <a
href="http://lrug.org/meetings/2007/07/23/august-2007-meeting/">http://lrug.org/meetings/2007/07/23/august-2007-meeting/</a><br>
<br>
It's scheduled for Monday, August 13th in our usual SkillsMatter venue,
starting at 6:30, with the usual trip to The Crown Tavern afterwards.<br>
The talks are as follows: Stephen Bartholomew is going to talk about
his StaticMatic gem for building static websites with haml, then
Frederik Fix is going to talk about all the fun and games you can get
up to with ruby2ruby and ParseTree, culminating in showing off a rails
plugin for converting ruby into javascript.

Registration is now open, so please do register so we at Skills Matter
can make out the number of people attending and prepare the room
accordingly.<br>

We've also got the BoF session at the No Fluff Just Stuff Exchange (<a
href="http://nfjs-exchange.com/lrug-bof">http://nfjs-exchange.com/lrug-bof</a>)
at the end of August. Not sure which day of the Exchange it's going to
be on yet, but we do know the time and the speakers. It'll be
8:00-8:45 with one talk by Dj "Codepope" Walker Morgan about Netbeans
as a ruby IDE and then Laurie Young talking about JRuby and why Java
programmers should give it a look. As I understand it, it's free to
non-conference attendees, so if you are interested in either of these
topics you are more than welcome to come along. <br>

In terms of the LRUG BoF session at NFJS eXchange, details are
available at the mentioned link above <a
href="http://nfjs-exchange.com/lrug-bof">http://nfjs-exchange.com/lrug-bof</a>.
All BoF sessions take place on Thursday evening, August 30th beginning
8:00pm. It would be great to see LRUG regulars there, all you have to
do is register to attend. However, if you would like to attend the
whole conference you will have to book a ticket. We are offering £100
off each ticket. LRUG-ers just have to quote <b>NFJS-LRU613</b> when
registering and it will be automatically deducted. Group discounts
will still apply.<br>
<br>
We hope to see you there! <br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
<br>
Jo<br>

Which brings me onto my next point: unfortunately, having agreed to do
it, I've since realised I won't actually be in London for it anymore,
as I'll be heading to a music festival. So we need someone to
volunteer to act as host. It'll be nothing strenuous; just turn up,
say something about LRUG in general (how often we meet, web page,
mailing list, irc etc...) and then introduce the two speakers and maybe
field any questions at the end. It'd be nice if a few other regular
LRUG folk turned up too, to help with questions and make folk think we
are a nice friendly group. Any takers?
<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
