[Hidden-tech] March 10, 7PM: Local Software Developers Meetup

[Chas Emerick]

Every second Thursday each month, a group of software developers from 
around Western Massachusetts and northern Connecticut gather to discuss 
software, the experience of crafting it, and the business surrounding 
it.  I wanted to provide a formal announcement of March's meetup to the 
hidden-tech group, as I'm sure there are more software developers and 
software entrepreneurs that would love to  spend some time with other 
birds of a feather.

The next meetup will be on March 10th, 7:00PM at Rao's in Amherst.  
Please take a moment to join the group and RSVP for the March 10th 
meetup so we'll have some notion of how many people to expect:

Technically, the group is organized as a Python enthusiast's meetup; 
however, those that have attended in the past have a *very* broad range 
of skills and experience, and conversation is always all over the 
board.  To give you an idea of the diversity of topics discussed, I 
remember these topics being among those touched upon at the last meetup 
earlier this month:  python, java, J2ME development, network/remote 
backup strategies and tools, midrange server and storage solutions 
(RAID, NAS/SAN, blade configurations, etc), business strategies, and 
some very amusing and fascinating stories from jobs long past.

I'm the 'official organizer' of the event, so please feel free to 
direct any questions you might have to me.

Thanks!
