We've started discussions to revive the Northern Virginia Drupal meetup. We don't want to compete with the awesome meetup in DC at Stetsons (as if we could!), but if folks want to gather elsewhere to talk about Drupal, I'm not going to discourage it!
We have some location suggestions which I will be looking into. If you have an alternate suggestion, feel free to post it here, or at the Meetup group:
http://www.meetup.com/drupal-21/
We will probably want to get a bit farther out than Arlington, (where we were previously) so we can make the trip a bit easier for those coming in.
If you are interested in attending, please comment here or on the meetup group. I'll need a decent idea of the kind of space we are going to need.

I'd like to come! I live in
I'd like to come! I live in DC, so I'll be coming from the other direction.
NVA Drupal Pow-Wow...that would be great!
Living in N. Fairfax, it would be great to meet somewhere a tad more convenient than DC. I'm all for it!

I would attend a Virginia
I would attend a Virginia meetup for sure. I'm a ways out, so Fairfax or beyond is even fine with me.

Live in Leesburg; Office in Reston. Anything a bit closer than the DC Stetsons venue would be great.

I would love to come to something closer than DC! If you are looking for a location, we have an extra office we use as a training room/conference room in Springfield, Va with two rooms open into each other (also plenty of parking) - one has tables and about 12 chairs and one has a smaller table with benches and more room around it if that works (not sure of how many people we are talking about).
Host NOVA Drupal MeetUp
We have a nice space in McLean that we could use!

What about someplace along the dulles corridor or at Tysons? Is that Central enough for everyone?
We have a space right off
We have a space right off route 7. Nice facility. Let me know.
Send details
PM me with the details! I'd love to hear more.

I get to the Stetson's meetup
I get to the Stetson's meetup when I can, but I live in Sterling and work in Germantown, MD, so it's not exactly convenient. A meetup somewhere in NoVA would be much easier -- ideally (for me) somewhere in the Dulles corridor.

Sounds good to me

I'm in
I live in Sterling and would love to have a meeting closer to home. Herndon/Reston sounds particularly appealing.
Most public libraries in
Most public libraries in Loudoun and Fairfax have rooms available for meetups like this on a first-come first-served basis.
Great idea
I think these public spaces are great back-ups. I myself prefer ready access to refreshments.

yes
Coming from Warrenton so Fairfax or Chantilly would be nice. I also know Krystee's location in west Springfield would be very accommodating.
I'm in
I'm definitely interested!
Great Response
Awesome! I've got a couple of ideas here. Keep them coming. Additional details to follow.
Yes, please!
I have a group of three guys I could round up to drive in from Front Royal... if the location is anywhere west of DC.
We have an office in Manasses
We have an office in Manasses and looking for locals. Anyone?
How about Herndon?
We have an office in Herndon, with easy access to the toll road and county pkwy. Anyone interested?
Herndon
Herndon would be very convenient for me.
