James,

Are you recording the talk? I've got existing arrangements.

I use rails at work, but I'd be interested to know how the talk goes. SLUG
seems to have had issues holding talks appropriate for a broad audience.

I'd be interested to come and listen or talk some time in future if the
dates work.

Regards,
Nick
