It seems like either Plone and/or blogger is enough of a starter kit
for any group to getting running immediately without locking
themselves into the meetup.com system.  Getting a way to use these
tools together and, aggregating their feeds, is something we will be
discussing at the Thursday Atlanta Python  User Group meeting.

Anyone else that is interested please contact me.  We have also been
going back and forth on getting a speaker registration system setup,
so that Python groups can get speakers from other cities.  This really
isn't a huge problem to tackle, but it needs some organization, which
is why I am starting the discussion.
