Talked to a few locals about this, let's get something rolling since there are a few new people in the area. If there isn't a ton I could host at my house, otherwise there are lots of nice places around.

What dates, weekends are you all open?
Suggestions for locales to meetup unless you all want to come to Ashburn and admire all the data centers and posh posh new developments... LOL.

I am somewhat open almost ever weekend, lets try for something in Nov either weeknight or weekend afternoon.

(Why doesn't Vbulliten let you tag users... this should be fundamental by now)

Interested People (location) -


Lighthouse ( loudoun cty)
Andviv (loudoun cty)
Jill (NC will fly up if availible)
twizlar? (hampton roads)

This is a phenomenal idea.

It should be standard, I did see one forum at some point with the capability, i am sure it was an add-on. At this point though, tagging is a common function, so the most popular forum software should have it built in!

Because vBulletin is still operating under late 90's ideas.

That's what happens when you are the major in an industry, no need to innovate if your product thats behind the times is still better then all the other products.

I can only speak for the ones i have been too, but most are in loudoun/fairfax as its somewhat central. That would be about 3 hours drvie for you.

Just wanted to quickly mention - I have a brief meeting this Sunday (11/24) at 4pm but should be available for a meetup up during the day or at/after 6pm if that happened to be the date that worked for everyone.

I'm not sure of my availability as of right now, due to family things going on, but I'd definitely want to be apart of this meetup.

Set a date and I'll see if I have anything scheduled.

Also, is this going to be a "beer and pancakes" format or just a casual get together of like-minded people?

This would typically work for me, but i have a thanksgiving dinner at 1 that day out in the boonies. If anything I could meet up with you all later than 6 if you all want to get together at that time.

Last time we met up at fairoaks mall, Is that central to everyone still?

I made an account just to join this meet up. I'm in the Alexandria area and I'm interested as well. Sundays are perfect for me.

Later will work out better for me as well ...
Would like to hear feedback on this proposed date and time from others who are planning on attending

I would come to this! I'm in Fairfax County. I'm flexible with schedule.
Thanks for coordinating this.

Folks, I added the sign up above so I can coordinate this. First meet up is this Sunday at 7PM in ashburn off route 7. If we make this regular, we will discuss other locations at the meetup. I sent an email to everyone that had signed up thus far with details this morning.

@ Mike, its casual for now, if we decide to get speakers or guests later we will give notice.

OK, registered and will be there. I will probably be a little bit late as I had some duties around the same time but will rush there as soon as I am done.
