Ruby conference in Singapore

Hi again everyone,

I like to take the chance to conduct a broadcast. Back a couple of weeks before today, i raised a question in the Singapore Ruby Brigade about the possibility of bringing a Ruby Conference to Singapore (This follows the synergy in the recent PyCON Asia Conf 2010) ; i have to admit that i have no prior experience in this and i'm not the organizer of this event but just trying to lend a helping hand.

So having said that,

I'm calling out to ALL Ruby enthusiasts out there to pitch in ideas at the Singapore Ruby Brigade group w.r.t the following:

1) What tracks would like the conference to have? e.g. education, research, application of ruby to real-world applications etc.

2) Speakers list. Currently, a fellow member of the SRB has contact several Ruby heavy weights and thus far a lot of many are interested. But if you know of someone that we don't and is doing GREAT Work, do not hesitate to submit their names

3) We are also trying to gather information about some practical issues like costs of running this conference so if anyone has expertise in this area, volunteering your expertise would be greatly appreciated.

4) We are also trying to get an idea of how much people like yourselves are willing to pay to attend the conference? Please send a note to @sausheong on twitter.

Alright, that's all i have for now. Would be great if we can come together to promote Ruby, share best practices and BE INSPIRED!

Thank you for your attention!
