If God had meant for carrots to be eaten cooked, He would have given rabbits fire.

That's odd. The message I sent wasn't empty, but the content was stripped out along the line somewhere. Perhaps because it was digitally signed? Anyway, here's what I *intended* for everyone to see:
The OSCON CFP closes Monday, February 5. As Chad mentioned in an earlier note, we've had a great Ruby track 3 years running, and good proposals from the community will help make that happen again. OSCON is the O'Reilly Open Source Convention, and attendance is a mix of Ruby, Python, Perl, PHP, Java, and C developers, plus other parts of the open-source community. It's a great venue for exposing Ruby to the broader community.
Pure Ruby-focused talks are of course welcome, and Rails-oriented talks would be appropriate in either the Ruby or Web tracks, depending on the target audience.
The full CFP is below.
Regards,
Glenn Vanderburg (for the OSCON program committee)
Be Heard at OSCON 2007 -- Submit Your Proposal to Lead Sessions and
Tutorials by February 5!
The O'Reilly Open Source Convention
July 23-27, 2007
Portland, Oregon
More than 2500 open source developers, gurus, experts and users will
gather, eager to network, learn, and share the latest knowledge on open
source software. We think of this group as "the best of the best," and we
invite you to contribute to the more than 400 sessions and 40 tutorials
designed to build inspiration and know-how. Submit your proposals at:
Share your favorite techniques, your proven successes, and newly developed
technology in tracks for Linux, PHP, Perl, Python, Ruby, Java, Databases,
Desktop Applications, Web Applications (client-side and server-side),
Windows, Administration, Security, and Emerging Topics.
No topic (other than closed source software) is off-limits, so send us
your best ideas. Among the hot topics we want to hear about are:
- Tools for the administration and deployment of large server farms
- Parallelization, grid, and multicore technologies
- Virtualization
- Ajax, Javascript, standards-based design, and other client-side web
issues
- Seaside, Rails, Django, and other interesting server-side technology
- Ubuntu as an emergent usable Linux distro and contender for Red Hat and
Sun's client and server markets
- Java as open source
- AI, machine learning, and other ways of making software smarter than the
people using it
- User experience and usability engineering lessons for web and desktop
software
- The spread of open source into law, culture, data, and services, and the
accompanying issues and lessons
For full details and guidelines on submitting your proposal, go to
Conferences - O'Reilly Media. If you know someone who would
be a good speaker, please pass this email on.
Whether as a speaker or as an attendee, you'll want to participate in this
meeting of the best minds in the business, which will also include the
O'Reilly Radar Executive Briefing. Be sure to save the dates -- July
23-27. Registration will open in early April.
We hope to see you in Portland in July!
The OSCON Team
P.S. Remember, proposals for sessions and tutorials must be submitted to
by (11:59PM Pacific Standard Time) Monday, February 5.

Thanks!! I was wondering. Sadly, I don't have anything ready to go, either Ruby or non-Ruby, so I'll have to pass. But I will plan something for FOSCON III :).
