My Presentation at the AltNetCrossGroup in London

I had the honor to be the first speaker of the cross language talks in altnet London group.

I really had a great time – the people were great, the MRM office was awesome (even though Kevin might think otherwise :) ) and most of the demos worked smoothly. Microsoft organized Pizzas and beer and the atmosphere was just incredible. Special thanks for Seb, Neil and MRM for making this happen.

And there was a talk too! I talked about Ruby, IronRuby, Cucumber and Ruby on Rails. I really tried to bring some real-world demos that you can take with you and implement right away.

To those who came and to those who didn’t make it, I attach the slides and demo files:

Hope you enjoyed it as much as I did,
