MacTechGrp Meeting Wednesday Jan 3 2006 7-9PM Room 315 Bldg E51 MIT
Sloan School

Note: you may get two copies of this email -- we are testing out the
email server.

Widgets & Rails - Building the new GUI with Ruby

Brian DeLacey will be talking about Ruby and its various
applications, specifically:

Introducing Ruby as a programming language
Introducing wxWidgets and wxRuby as a GUI Toolkit
Introducing Rails (aka Ruby on Rails) as a means for developing
graphical web applications

He'll demonstrate each and provide links to a number of online
resources for further detail.

Brian is an old BCS'er who is a very knowledgeable and excellent
speaker.  I recommend this meeting for anyone wanting to know more
about this very hot programming topic.


Room note:  We haven't officially got room 315 at this time. Please
look for a sign on either the blackboard, or at the door if we have
to relocate.  No sign?  Just go in room 315.
