It's so sad to see meet ups and drink-ups from every state surrounding Alabama, but not actually in Alabama. I take great pride from being in this state my entire life, and I'd like to start something here.
I wouldn't be surprised if a few GitHubbers dropped by Huntsville sometime this summer. Watch the blog.
That would be awesome. I'm originally from Huntsville but in Birmingham right now - I might try to organize some sort of unofficial deal here. There's a surprising amount of hackers and makers here from what I've seen around the internet and talks with my coworkers (just moved to bham).
I was surprised to see a drink-up on their map in Portland, ME (where I am), however it was actually for OSCON in the other Portland, in OR.
