Robertson Adams who does the communications and the website for the Knight Foundation (http://knightfoundation.org/home/) hosted a Dupal meetup tonight at the Knight Foundation office in downtown Miami. There were about twelve people or so in attendance and I had great opportunity to give a very brief demonstration of OpenPublish and OP 1.7 (with the Admin 2 module installed) to the group.
There will be another meeting next month on March 24. We will have some topics to discuss about Drupal such as image galleries and Drush.However, it would also be good if we discussed open source online journalism with Drupal and OpenPublish since this happens to be a major focus of the host, the Knight Foundation. The questions that were asked about OpenPublish 1.7 have to do with using features, context and OpenCalais.
I'm not the best person to be talking about OpenPublish. Perhaps, Phase II, irakli and Febbraro can give a presentation via teleconferencing? Or, better yet, make an excuse to fly down to Miami for ...... work / spring break!
I hope to see some of the other OpenPublish members who live in South Florida there next month too.

Great idea
We (Phase2) are putting a similar presentation for Atlanta's meetup next month. We could probably road show it on down to Miami for March 24th if you think there would be interest?
