Keynote
Keynote
Tim Bray, Web Guy, Sun Microsystems
Date: Saturday, May 19
Time: 9:15am
- 10:15am
Location: Oregon Ballroom
This keynote is going to mix code-slinging and business arm-waving. Tim has some real concerns about the future of big applications, and while Rails solves some of them, it ignores some and makes others worse. Tim will discuss what he sees as the pain points and offer some ideas about which directions we should be heading to get around them. He will also talk a bit at the business level, about why it's a complete no-brainer for a big mainstream company like Sun to suddenly start investing in Ruby and Rails.
