4. About RubyKaigi
   • A lot of Ruby committers are present
   
   • The committers give speeches
   Ruby Committers vs the World
   By listening to the committers’ speeches, one
   really feels how Ruby is built upon great
   programmers sharing patches with each other.
   One also understands how wonderful and fun
   open source can be.

6. Ruby’s creation can be
   compared to building blocks
   The lectures in RubyKaigi are given by people
   who write code. They love Ruby, and have
   fun writing code.
   
   They look just like children showing off their
   toys.
   
   To visualize this event created for them, the
   analogy of a toy (building blocks) seemed
   appropriate.

8. One of the Three Views of Japan,
   “Matsushima”, is inside Miyagi Prefecture
   Matsushima is a group of islands in Miyagi Prefecture, Japan. There are
   some 260 tiny islands (shima) covered in pines (matsu) - hence the name -
   and is ranked as one of the Three Views of Japan.

    The patterns used represent Matsushima, which is a famous
    city inside Miyagi Prefecture, but the event is going to be
    held in the city of Sendai, which is a bit distant (40 minutes
    travel).
    
    I also want to include some typical Sendai elements!

16. Sendai’s famous general and
    traditional doll
    Date Masamune Kokeshi
    Date Masamune (September 5, 1567 – June 27, 1636) was a regional ruler
    of Japan's Azuchi–Momoyama period through early Edo period. Heir to a
    long line of powerful daimyōs in the Tōhoku region, he went on to found
    the modern-day city of Sendai. An outstanding tactician, he was made all
    the more iconic for his missing eye, as Masamune was often called
    dokuganryū (ಠ؟ཽ), or the "One-Eyed Dragon of Ōshu".
    Kokeshi are Japanese dolls, originally from northeastern region (Tōhoku-chihō)
    of Japan. They are handmade from wood, have a simple trunk and head with a
    few thin, painted lines to define the face. The body often has floral and/or ring
    designs painted in red, black, and sometimes green purple, blue or yellow inks,
    and covered with a layer of wax. One characteristic of kokeshi dolls is their
    lack of arms or legs. Since the 1950s, kokeshi makers have signed their work,
    usually on the bottom and sometimes on the backside.
