A little late, but we thought it would be interesting and helpful to share our experiences organizing BohConf, the official unconf of RailsConf 2010. Thanks to all those who attended!

Learn how to very simply ensure that a site rewrite or transition is executed smoothly by leveraging Rack::Rewrite and Google Analytics.
