Between the most interesting sessions in this day RAD is surely mentioned, a framework that allows you to use Ruby to Arduino
The guys from FozWorks have presented and preview of a patch for Sphinx that makes it possible to search based on the geographical distance between the two or more objects.
In conclusion it was very appreciated also the intervention of Josh Goebel the creator of the famous Pastie that entertained the audience speaking about the advanced functionality of the application, like integrating with textmate, vim and the Pastie bot for IRC.
Sunday 1 June 2008
From the proposals of the sessions of Sunday, the following must be mentioned:

Plugin: RESTFUL workflow A plugin to create a workflow similar to that of an interview that allows you to create a wizard of n-pages with saving the data at the end. The workflow is defined from a DSL.
He presented a REST interface through that a Rails application can have a dialogue with Jabber.
Last but not least, an expected RSpec Story Runner bundle with Textmate was presented (personally).
