BarCamp is an "event for the Portland tech community, produced BY the
Portland tech community. Interesting topics, cool people, great
networking opportunities, wifi, free food and bubble tea!" More details:
http://barcamp.org/BarCampPortland
I'll be giving a free presentation there that may be of interest to
those on the list that haven't worked much with Rails yet but want to
know more about it and get an objective comparison of how it stacks up
against other frameworks:
*"*Business Benefits of Rails" -- An easy-to-follow presentation for
business leaders and those interested in getting high-quality custom web
applications delivered quickly. No programming experience is expected,
this presentation will provide business-friendly, plain English answers
to: What is Ruby on Rails? How it can help your business? How you can
maximize ROI and avoid pitfalls with it? Preliminary PDF slides:

I'll also be giving a second free presentation there, which I posted
about earlier:
"Scaling Rails Applications" -- Practical solutions for making Ruby on
Rails fast enough for use on high-traffic websites. Discusses tools and
recipes used for optimizing performance, clustering, management and
hosting. This technical talk is aimed at programmers and system
administrators that want to speed up existing Rails applications or want
to do so in the future. Preliminary PDF slides:

See you there.
