Krista and I could have a baby girl at any moment. If she comes soon or late enough, I can go to Foo Camp. If she decides to come late Friday or Saturday, I obviously can't. At first I accepted the fact that I wouldn't be able to go, but Krista insists I can't miss Foo Camp if at all possible. Krista pointed out that Cam spoke at TSSS when his wife was 40 weeks pregnant. Whereas Cam was 3 time zones away, Sebastapol is only about 50 miles from our apartment. Krista's mom can hold down the fort for an hour. Does Krista rock or what? If I do make it (cross my fingers, knock on wood, rub Krista's belly), I'm looking forward to brainstorming what WebWork and even Java as a whole can learn from Ruby on Rails. Pat Lightbody, Pat Niemeyer and I have gone back and forth on some pretty sweet ideas the past couple weeks, and Lightbody even has some working code. In any case, thanks, O'Reilly, for the invite!
