Unfortunately your timing is a little off as Andrew Stewart talked about this very subject at the last meeting so I think it might be a bit too soon to revisit the area. Unless, of course, we change our name to LAPFRUG (London Asynchronous Processing For Ruby User Group), which, admittedly does have a certain ring to it ;) Maybe some other time?<br>
<br>For anyone else with a long talk / demo / whatever up their sleeve, we've now got 6 folk signed up to show'n'tell, so the meeting can probably only support another of these shortish show'n'tells not a longer talk. However, don't let that stop you volunteering yourself for a future meeting.<br>
