Ruby on Rails Camp Was A Success

Wow, the Ruby on Rails Camp really went well!

Beforehand, our biggest fear with this unconference format was that only a few people would want to lead a session. So our hearts stopped momentarily when when we called for sessions and only 6 people initially came down. But after a few minutes, a bunch of other people started coming down and we quickly filled up the schedule with 28 sessions.

Besides the great sessions, the speed demo was very popular.

People were also very impressed with the beautiful IBM facility and terrific food and drinks they provided, as well as the free coffee barista and sushi dinner made possible by our other sponsors. Thanks again to IBM for hosting the event and providing all the food and refreshments, and our other sponsors for making this possible!

We had a lot of great feedback about the camp. Greg Tomei said “Wow – my expectations were exceeded by a huge measure!” and Dav Yaginuma said “The very first session on memcached was perhaps the most perfect conference session I’d ever attended.”

But the real thanks should go to all you attendees – it was your efforts that really made this unconference a success!
