I'm the organizer of the Australia Drupal community and am home for the holidays. I was wondering if anyone in Miami, or south florida in general, would be interested in meeting up. I brought some Drupal Australia schwag to share (and maybe swap with people). I'm also keen to swap ideas with the local organizers here and if there is anything I can do to help with the local community.
I am already here (arrived yesterday) so for anyone that wants to make themselves sick on all things Drupal (and beer), please let me know. Pretty much anytime next week would be ideal, I'm happy to do evenings or day time.

Count me N2!
I can do Thursday Dec 18, also we have a Wed Dec 17 at Books and Books in Coral Gables. Maybe north of Miami for those up north? Maybe South Beach?
There's a December 17 meetup?
There's a December 17 meetup? I didn't see it in the calendar.
I might not be able to make it to the December 17 meetup but I'm interested in getting together if there's an event later in the month.
How about somewhere in Broward county?
That would be kind of half way between Palm Beach/Martin counties and Miami. (Although I'd make the trip to Miami if that's what everyone else wants).
There's a chance that I'll
There's a chance that I'll be in the area later this month and I'm definitely up for a meeting.
meeting tonight?
So, do we have a meeting in place for tonight? 17th, 7pm @ Books & Books?
If not, I'd definitely like to schedule something for tomorrow night.

tomorrow?
Not tonight - but tomorrow sometime? Evening's O.K., especially if it's in Broward. If somebody has location suggestions, speak up - otherwise I'll see what I can find.

if not tomorrow
later in the month?
meetup in Miami AND Broward?
First of all I must apologize - I just moved to a new place and still am dealing with boxes and chaos. I was going to attach a picture of the chaos but chickened out.
Since Claudio set a schedule for meetings through the end of the year I was planning on making an appearance at Books and Books tonight since it is relatively close for me now. I know sometimes people show up with out signing up.
Tonight is the same night as Refresh Miami - so our chose of nights was not too good.
Carol - if you can offer any help it would be greatly appreciated. Do you know of a good location in Broward? I will be sure to make it up there.
Anyway sorry for no being able to get things together due to my relocation issues.
Try to show up
Ok, I'll try to show up at Books and Books tonight.
All the way to broward might be difficult for me tomorrow, but lets pick a location. How about the barnes and noble at Pembroke Pines? I've also found that a low-key pub/bar usually works well for these meetings as well, but I can't think of anything up that way.

sounds good to me
(the Barnes & Noble option)
I don't know any pubs that would be good, but I'm open
time?
Carol
Anyone?
I had to drive around a bit to find some internet, but I was at Books & Books but didn't see anyone. Doubt anyone will respond to this quickly, but if you're there or have moved on to the Refresh Miami, please let me know.

Bummer! It looks like there
Bummer! It looks like there wasn't a scheduled meetup after all.
For what it's worth, I'll be in the area later this month. I'll send you an email when I know what my plans are.
Eventually Met up
After a little searching for a payphone, I was able to catch up with Howard last night and we had a good chat.
It would be great to meetup with everyone else tonight. Hopefully Howard can attest to the awesome schwag I'm carrying around ;)
How about 7:30pm for tonight at Barnes & Noble in Pembroke Pines?
@Claudio - can you make that?
