We have our own meet ups usually but we could take a break from drinking to actually teach people ;) If there was a decent interest we would even commute down to south bay, although all of us are in peninsula and east bay. We have our meet ups at mozilla offices usually, plenty of space in a great venue.</div><blockquote type="cite" style="border-left-style:solid;border-width:1px;margin-left:0px;padding-left:10px;"><span><div><div><div> If we wanted to switch from Plone, it could be a fun team project for a bunch of us to create a site in Django/Pyramid/etc.</div></div></div></span></blockquote><div>The main issue I see with all of this is no one talks about what they *want* from the site. If you just want to schedule meet ups, go to meetup.com like everyone else. If there should be something else, then decide what "something else" is and go from there.</div><div><br></div><div>So the question is, is anyone else interested in a talk on Plone?
