There's supposed to be a lot of awesome stuff coming out, including the ability to run on a Java JVM. Which is what Bruce Tate is predicting will cause a Ruby explosion, because then IT departments will be able to leverage their existing infrastructure.

Geeks may know about it, but most IT people I know haven't even heard of it (then again, what you say about the conference contradicts me).

(It's a Java conference.) And ALL of the presenters were talking about Ruby and Ruby on Rails. It sounds like it has some more maturing to do, but in about 6 months it's going to be huge.
