About the conference
FutureRuby isn't a Ruby conference, but a conference for Rubyists. This is a call to order - a congress of the curious characters that drew us to this community in the first place. We have a singular opportunity to express a long-term vision, a future where Ruby drives creativity and prosperity without being dampened by partisan politics.

Not just some very cool product directions, but a fantastic perspective on where we could be headed in general. And their products are Open Source too! These guys deserve medals.
Great delivery too. Most exciting presentation I've seen in a while. Thanks.
