Ruby 1.9.2 in Production with Tatsuhiro Ujihisa

Yes, there's actually one more Rails meetup happening this year. In fact, it's happening in a week!

Tatsuhiro Ujihisa is going to do a talk about Ruby 1.9.2 on November 23rd at 7 PM. He's one of the biggest Ruby gurus in Vancouver, so don't miss it. (Sorry for the late notice...)

Talk

Ruby 1.9.2 was released on August 18, 2010. Ruby 1.9 series had some difficulties to use for production until this new stable version release, but now it's time to use it, abandoning old Ruby. This presentation will explain some problems existed in Ruby 1.8 series or 1.9.1 that was solved in Ruby 1.9 in actual cases, and will explain some tips to make legacy codes available on 1.9. It includes demonstrations. If I have extra time I will explain the developing version 1.9.3dev as well.
