Are there other people besides myself who would be interested in events in either Milwaukee, Madison, or someplace half-way between. Perhaps monthly or bi-monthly?
Is it simply that the organizers of these events in the past got too busy to keep doing it, or was the problem lack of interest/attendees? Or were we also lacking people to speak on topics, and contribute to it being a rich experience?

We generally have monthly events
We generally have monthly events in Madison; however, we skipped the past month after the camp and summit. I'm traveling currently, but anyone is welcome to schedule a meetup!
We might also want to consider the Drupal ladder:

.
I'm too far west to make any of those locations possible for me. If there's anyone else from the left coast of Wisconsin, I'd love to hear from you. :)

We did have difficulty
We did have difficulty getting enough participation in Milwaukee. I would be interested in events somewhere in Wisconsin maybe on a bi-monthly basis.

I have helped organize
I have helped organize meetups in Madison and am happy to do so again or at least participate. It seems like interest has flagged recently. Perhaps because a lot of time and energy got put into the summit. If you propose a meetup in Madison I will try and make it if I can. Meeting up in September would be great.

Friday night at a bar seems
Friday night at a bar seems more like a social meetup, to me. For a while I think it was one month a social meetup at a bar, the other month a regular meetup on a week night at a non-bar. I'd be up for the first non-social meetup!
Just an FYI Friday eve will
Just an FYI Friday eve will be super crowded for any restaurants in Madison.

Let meet this month
How about a regular meetup with computers and code this month (9/19?) and then the social version in October. Topics? any Aegir users out there? Drupal Commerce? OG on D7? Something else.... the state of core?
I'm pretty into Aegir! That
I'm pretty into Aegir! That could be a fun topic. :-)
I second that!
I'm up for whatever. Aaron's right that Fridays are busy for social meetups, but tables can be reserved, so I think it would work either way as long as we reserve a table. As for the regular/computer meetup, did that ever happen? If not, can we settle on a date?
