And in today's chapter of Yop's Epic Quest to Goan Meet New People and Make Friends: I might've just started organizing a get-together of sorts for the fellow developers at another forum I frequent. I poasted the idea, and reception so far (by a handful of people) is positive.
Just asked where it would be convenient. I should definitely try and go through with it, even if it's just a handful of people that can make it.
As for a location, it might be possible to do it at my job - we've got room and internet, and I'm somehow sure my colleagues and the higher management wouldn't be opposed to pulling in a half-dozen (or more, hopefully) developers from other companies - after all, it's a hiring opportunity
.
Edit: And @thread, polymetres. I should get sheet music or write this down and try to emulate at least part of this shit. (Meshuggah, that is).
