I believe OSCON didn't historically had a Ruby track (but I could be wrong!) because O'Reilly had an entire conference instead, RailsConf. That was sold/given away/somehow ended up in the hands of Ruby Central a few years ago, and essentially Rubyists were used to having their own separate events by that stage anyway.
