I just saw an announcement about the Montreal Ruby Users Group, which started me thinking …

There are 5-8 ruby brigades up in the North East. Wouldn’t it be great if they could work together to pull of a regional RubyConf? Or to share speakers? Or just to coordinate meetings?

Since several other places are in a similar position, I thought I’d better do something about it—I decided to start a google group:
http://groups.google.com/group/Ruby-Brigades

sign up, get involved, help Ruby Brigades grow!
