Wow. Posting it somewhere else to get more people doesn't mean you have to
register for the site.  
 

Meetup does, 


Get your head out of your keister.

I respect people may not want to be a part of meetup due to privacy
concerns. I have the intention of continuing to communicate the meetings
using the penguinsunbound.com website. But as the coordinator of the group
the benefits  were enough to cover the organizer dues myself rather than
trying to maintain self managed software. Anyone concerned can continue to
reference the website for meeting times. I also felt we as a group could
grow from the other IT professionals in the twin cities already on meetup
that may not be aware of the group if they never had heard of us before.

Meetup is a commercial firm that requires groups to pay group dues and
submit their member lists for their advertising purposes.  Not private or
self-governed.  Many may not want their names submitted to this commercial
operation.  I'd like to hear of Penguins things, but not this way.

Hello everyone,

We have created a meetup site for Penguins Unbound.  This should enable us
to better communicate group activities, meeting times, place availability,
etc.  I hope all interested will join meetup  and RSVP for the March 21st
10AM meeting so I can get accurate attendance numbers.  This will also help
on topic interest and meeting place requirements. (Future dates will be
added once I get time).

The site: http://www.meetup.com/PenguinsUnbound/


I plan on talking a bit about piwigo (the open source gallery software)
http://piwigo.org/

David may present some material he's been working on about customer success
in SaaS.


I am waiting for confirmation on the place but will announce it once that is
completed. More to come!
