The call for proposals for RubyKaigi 2009 has been extended to Thursday, March 26th. (Also announced on ruby-talk) - If you're interested in presenting on any topic related to ruby to a receptive audience in Japan, please submit the title and a summary of your talk to 2009@rubykaigi,org, along with your name and contact details. Talks may be in English or Japanese (perhaps both?), and Ruby.

Only a few days left until the RubyKaigi 2009 call for presentation proposals close on Sunday, March 15th. This year, RubyKaigi is making the jump from single track to multi-track, so we are also open to multiple presentation proposal (which is handy if you can't decide on a single topic).
