In case some people are not busy enough with their current projects :P, the folks over at the Rubygame boards are vaguely planning their 3rd Ruby Weekend competition. It might happen as soon as on next weekend. If you are using the Ruby side of Gosu, here's your chance to prove yourself etc. ;)

I'm not sure if I can divert even more time from my current C++ project, but I'll try to see this as a nice deadline to finally release a new stable Gosu release in time for the compo.

Compo is running for then next 72 hours, theme is "A Tiny World" :)

For those who have a problem with any requirement of the Ruby Weekend compo—programming language, required licenses, theme, art usage, whatever—there also is the relaxed Mini Ludum Dare compo about "Domestic Violence", organized by increpare, with about the same deadline.
