hi sriprasana,

its an open event and we are looking for participant like you to propose sessions and take them. It will be great if participants can propose them and send them to my email id : kapil at vinsol dot com.

Otherwise we will have an open ruby brainstorming session with whats new in the ruby world.

And I will update the main description page myself as soon as somebody proposes the session like Akhil did few hours back.

Regards
kapil

Kapil, I was talking to Waseem and Kazim after the meetup and they suggested that I do a presentation on Search Engine Optimization (SEO) as I've been involved with it ever since 2002. If there is demand for it, and if you (and everyone else) thinks it will be useful I can do it for next time's meetup... let me know what you think.

hi nabeel , that will be awesome. It will be great if we can have a follow up session or discussion by other members on how to make ruby on rails apps more Search engine friendly.

It was good to have it after the long gap. Good to see participants from Uzanto(slideshare) as well.

After a number of months, this meetup was really good. RDS session by Akhil was superb! Something which you do not find easily elsewhere. Looking forward for regular meetups.
Kazim Zaidi

Definitely better than last time. Had some not-so-beginner brainstorming session and an awesome presentation on Amazon's new RDS. Looking forward to great sessions like this, since we've a mix of great rubyists in here!
