default Call for Participation

2015

Intro

The goal of the Ruby devroom is to host technical content focused around the Ruby language and the numerous open source projects and initiatives which implement, extend and instrument the Ruby language.

The time format for presentations in the Ruby devroom is not set in stone, but the ideal duration is around 35-45 minutes with Q&A included.

We are open to suggestions for panels and/or more open, moderated, discussions provided the topics proposed fit with the theme of the room.

Talks/topics we'd like to see

Some suggestions on the kinds of topics we would like to see discussed in the Ruby devroom:

  • The current state of the Ruby language itself
  • Presentations on the techniques employed by various Ruby virtual machines and interpreters, along with the effectiveness and/or trade-offs of implementing those techniques
  • Upcoming Ruby language features, and the implementation challenges and/or user benefits that they provide
  • Tools and practices used to certify Ruby language conformity and evaluate its performance
