45 minutes isn't very long, but we'd like to make it really heavy on
demos and practical details. We'll skip GUI stuff since the Happy
Campers have a MonkeyBars talk, and instead show Rails
execution/deployment, 3D game dev, 1.9 support, and do a short-but-sweet
pitch for why building on the JVM is such a great idea.
I won't try to pull you away, if you think you've seen this stuff
before, but it should still be a fun talk. To be honest, I'm really
hoping more folks *not* interested in JRuby are there...it's a little
unfortunate we don't have a plenary session this year.
