This will be the first RubyConf I've ever missed. My travel budget was burned up on a make-up trip to Florida (caused by the blizzard), a trip to Thailand, a trip to Wisconsin for the 4th of July, and an upcoming trip to Florida for Christmas. Something had to give, and it was RubyConf.
Also, work is getting hectic, what with the $BIG_BLOATED_JAVA_APP nearing it's deployment date. Gotta be around for that. Unfortunately.
Last, but not least, I think I've pretty much learned all I'm going to learn at the conferences. Last year was the pinnacle for me. I know, I know - half the reason to go to these is the hallway sessions. The thing is, I don't think I'm going to get more out of those, either.
So, this weekend will officially be a 'win32-service' weekend, where I try to finish up the pure Ruby port of win32-service. With callback support added to win32-api, I think we can even port the Win32::Daemon class, which would be swell.
