Finally, a NoVA Ruby users group! Here's the brief post from +ruby-talk:

+ +
+

January 25...details can be found here: http://www.novarug.org

+ +

I will be posting an itinerary soon, but we will be showing the app + were are working on at InfoEther (Ruby + Flash).

+
+ +

I'll be there, although that means forfeiting my previously sacrosanct +poker night.

+ +

As you know, a user group meetup, regardless of the topic, isn't +complete without a nutty guy waving his arms and ranting about some +petty grievance, I'm already prepared with my crazy pedant rant.

+ +

Why the hell, and I'm looking at you, Gruff, would you ship a +library that doesn't even work? It's got a bit of documentation, some +sample code, and examples of pretty output. Except it doesn't work. At +all. Why?

+ +

Anyway, "novarug" — or is it written "NOVARUG" — has to be +one of the less sexy names I've heard recently. Hopefully +Rich Kilmer's presentation in a couple weeks is as interesting as it +was at RubyConf 2004.

+ +

Update: Apparently the Gruff +library isn't broken, but the Gruff +gem is. It doesn't check for or require the RMagick gem. +
