Its not like there are no european Ruby conferences that include many topics beyond Rails and even Ruby. E.g. wroclove.rb, eurucamp and even EuRuKo. So, I don't see the big news here.

Calling a conference "Railsxxx" and then not doing any Rails sounds weird to me.

Yeah, "big news" is relative. Maybe it's no big news, it's cool, too! We just wanted to share what our focus is going to be. People seem to react well (=> twitter).

Why Railsberry? => it's still for Rails devs by Rails devs. And we love our name :D

Oh, I don't want to criticize too much. I am just quite surprised the only all-out community Rails conference in Europe is suddenly non-Rails at all.

In any case, you are doing great work and I am sure that Railsberry will be a success again!

Thanks! Stay tuned for what's on the menu, we're sure as the programme unrolls, it will answer some doubts ;).

That's actually a plan we came up with with Rails core team guys and hopefully Rails community can benefit A LOT from this open-minded approach!

Ruberry? Rberry? NoRailsBerry? ;)
