We did do our homework and took inspiration from your blog post about putting on, either Future Ruby or Ruby Fringe, I forget which at the moment. I appreciate your concern and pointing out that conference organization is often a thankless task. We've been working on the conference for better than a year and continue to learn lessons that can only be learned in the first year.

This is not a decision we made lightly or without any contingency.
