[Haskell-cafe] User groups meeting all over the world

[Don Stewart]

The community might be interested to know that there are (at least)
7 Haskell/FP user groups meeting across the world in the next two
weeks!

FringeDC Washington DC/USA February 9
PDXFunc Portland/USA February 11
Fun in the afternoon London/UK February 12
BayFP San Francisco/USA February 13
Saint-Petersburg Haskell User Group Saint-Petersburg/Russia. February 16
NYFP Network New York/USA February 19
NWFPIG: Seattle FP Group Seattle/USA February 20

The Austin (Texas) group met a couple of weeks ago.

This is a great development -- a year ago I don't think we had *any*
groups meeting regularly.

Consider dropping in to one, if there's a meetting near you, or
starting your own group!

All groups we know about are listed here:

I will only consider events where they serve free tea and sandwiches,
plus if there's a landing pad for the chopper nearby. :-)

BayFP's next one _might_ be at a place rhyming with "Loogle"[1], so that'd be
organic tea and I'm certain there's a landing pad....

HTH,

Hi Neil,

London HUG is not on the list because we're not meeting in the next
two weeks. Rest assured we are on the wiki page though.

On that note, I am looking again for topics and speaker for the next
full meeting at City University. It will likely be in the middle of
March. If anybody has ideas for talks, please let me know. Also talk
to me if there is something in particular you would like to *hear*
about... then we'll do our best to find somebody who can talk about
it.

Thanks,
Another Neil
