Since we are getting close to the holidays, I'm going to move the meetup up one week since a lot of people will be on vacation for the last two weeks.

We've got a double team of brilliant engineers who will demonstrate how to build a real-life application right before your eyes. No mirrors, no tricks, just real life coding like you've never seen before... Please give a big hand for Kelly Felkins and Jane Macfarlane.

Kelly and Jane are planning to create an application for suggesting and voting on East Bay Ruby Meetup topics. People will be able to login, view the list of suggested topics, vote on 1 or more topics, and add topics.

Does anyone have a spare projector they could lend to the meetup for the night?

Cheers,
- Will Sobel
