I think it's related to the fact that I can't get to
rubyconf.org right now.

I'm seeing the same issue. I'll look into it now.

Unrelated, but an explanation:

Actually, until today we weren't hosting rubyconf.org/com. It was hosted
elsewhere and we were redirecting from there to rubycentral.org.

As of today, we own the domain. Unfortunately, it happened a little
faster than i thought it would so things weren't setup properly. DNS
should be propagating now.

Fixed now? There was a problem with the temp file. Someday, I may switch
this to Ruwiki, though it will likely be a lot of work. I'll certainly
wait until Ruwiki is at version 1.0. With Ruwiki, I can also easily
integrate Rublog's search feature, which will be much much faster than
Usemod's. And, of course, when Ruby Lucene is finished....
