Hello Miami Drupal people,
It's been a while since anyone has posted anything so I thought I would thought I would present some ideas. Hopefully this will stimulate some feedback, thoughts, etc.
Quite frankly I see a lot of value in meeting other Drupal people in the area, not only for networking and all of that business and career stuff, but for a variety of other reasons as well. One of the things I am noticing lately is that there is an unscripted and non-centralized gathering of technology people meeting up in groups and exchanging information, yet not though the auspices of some large corporate entity. What seems to be happening is that some companies and independent workers are establishing partnerships and networks that are both flexible and efficient.
I am wondering if anyone would be interested in starting, helping start, or participating some sort of "Bar Camp" (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bar_camp) type event similar to what is going on in the San Francisco bay area. We could expand into all sorts of related open source topics. While not specifically Drupal related, there is a Saturday event in downtown Miami some people may be interested in - see http://fsf.meetup.com/28/about
I look forward to your opinions.

New drupaler (Is that a word?!?!)
I've just recently found drupal myself and am really excited about the possibilities. Count me in! :-)
