In the last month, I got an opportunity to attend the very first Ruby conference held in Bangalore, India(20-21 March) organized by ThoughtWorks. The response was very huge (around 400 people ranging from beginners to CEOs from more than 100 companies) and people really enjoyed the event.
It was really great to hear some good speakers/industry leaders like Matz, Obie Fernandez, Ola Bini, etc. Many technical topics were presented like future of Ruby, Rails 3.0, Glassfish and WebRoar app servers, building cross platform mobile application with Rhodes framework, etc. You can find more details about these topics at http://rubyconfindia.org/
I felt a lot of enthusiasm and energy amongst the people w.r.t. Ruby and Rails. There are many small companies being set up especially in Pune and Bangalore for doing only rails projects. I really liked that !
Indian market is really catching up on Rails very fast !
