Geoffrey Donaldson is back to pick up from where he left off last time. He'll be talking about SproutCore. We've already seen CouchDB last time, but here's his combined spiel:

CouchDB and Sproutcore are 2 new projects that's haven't yet reached a 1.0 release, but are both catching the eyes of many developers. Sproutcore is being deemed Cocoa for the web, as it brings many desktop programming techniques to the browser, such as bindings, Key/Value keying and MVC. CouchDB is a 'new age' storage engine, based on storing schema free documents, instead of rows. This not a replacement for our beloved relational databases, but in many cases, actually suites our needs better. We'll be looking at how both of these work, where they might fit in, how to use them with ruby, and briefly touch on how they might all work together.

By popular demand, Geoffrey will also be giving a lightning talk on how he uses Keynote to do his spiffy presentations.

On top of this, we'll be having a couple of the teams from the weekend's Rails Rumble presenting their applications and describing the experience of building a Rails application in 48 hours, while living inside Dr Evil's War Room with a Fat Bastard.

Arjen Lentz will be plugging OurDelta, the place to go for MySQL builds.

If we have any other lightning talks in the wings, we'll just have to see if we can fit them in. Its a pretty full agenda already.

Afterwards, we're off to Jackpot.

I'll have my laptop set up ready to go for anyone who needs it. If someone can supply access to the tubes, then that would be gratefully accepted.
