John Hume our regular thought worker will be leading us in full on exploration of Ruby's metaprogramming magic. Metaprogramming is the magic ingredient that makes for more expressive programs. metaprogramming makes your code easier to write, maintain and extend. You may have been beating your head against the wall trying to wrap your mind around Metaprogramming concepts. You might know the dark art of Metaprogramming but want to know where and when to use your ruby sorcery, or you might be a Metaprogamming ninja wanting to parlay with your fellow Rubyists.

Intent Media is generously hosting the event and ThoughtWorks will be providing snacks and drinks.

There is a waiting list so if you are already rsvp'd and can't make it clear the queue.
