Haven’t been able to find a definitive source for the slides from RubyConf and, judging from my referrer logs, many others are also looking. Here’s my attempt to gather a reference to them in one place; I’ve just copied the schedule from the RubyConf site and am adding links as I find them. I’ll update this as I find more (and please tell me if you know where to find them =)

UBER-UPDATE: Ryan Davis (aka zenspider) keeps an annual repository of the RubyConf presentations. He hasn’t posted 2007 yet, but here’s links to 2006, 2005, 2004, 2003, and 2002. Very nice.
