Hey all,<div><br></div><div>Some of you may have bumped into <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; border-collapse: collapse; ">Koichi Sasada (@_ko1) at last night's LRUG and if you did I hope you were nice because he was nice to us; he brought us some presents from Japan! At the end of the meeting he gave me a couple of Ruby Kaigi 2007 tote bags (pictured here: </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; border-collapse: collapse; "><a href="http://sho.tdiary.net/images/20070609_2.jpg">http://sho.tdiary.net/images/20070609_2.jpg</a>). They're a reasonable size (big enough for a laptop, certainly), seem very sturdy, and are clearly a collectors item.</span></div>

As you may know, I've been working on a little project called the "Amazing Automatic Volunteer-A-Tron" to help me find interesting projects written by London based rubyists so I can ask them to talk at LRUG. It's far from perfect so I figured that I'll give these 2 tote bags to whomever does the most interesting or useful thing to the project. (Note: the most interesting or useful thing might be to write something else rather than augment what I've already done).</span></font></div>
