Title: Humans at the Core of Ruby

The Ruby community is composed of two parts, Ruby itself and people. Although we love coding Ruby, not having the right approach when it comes to people, including ourselves, will block us from ever achieving happiness in any programming endeavor.

First, what is it that Ruby has that makes us feel happier when programming? How can we leverage Ruby to better express ourselves?

Second, our clients have their own realities, each one with their own tastes and ways of looking at the world. How can we leverage Ruby to connect their realities with ours using an ubiquitous language and achieve success in our projects?

To improve our community and have more fun than ever, we have to improve on the most important aspect of any software project: the people. I'll talk about that.
