What is the status of this group and a meeting location? | helena | 9/24/12 6:40 PM | I'd like to help kickstart the activity as we move into fall. What can I do to help? My first contribution to Akka (scala api) just got merged into master today. We're working on a new feature in the pending 2.1 release for load balancing Akka nodes in the cluster. Cool stuff.

Re: What is the status of this group and a meeting location? | Aaron A | 9/25/12 8:20 AM | We tried to move the group a bit more North and the SLCC Campus we got
an offer for ended up being their Sandy location. So it didn't work out as a moving north location. heh I don't mind having it at the Sandy library again, but we'll be back to needing a projector. Also I don't want this to be my group. I want it to be _our_ group. So I am down with anything and I'll even add on giving a talk with Akka to Helena's if you guys want. We just put Akka in place at work to handle ALL financial transactions and it was a stinkin blast. I could go over some things on what I did and how I got started. Just let me know what works best for everyone and I'm totally down. I just haven't had luck on locations and have sorta waited to hear from everyone else and their ideas. I know there are a few ideas of locations, but I get a lot of emails asking why that particular location might not be the best. So we just need to communicate amongst each other and just move forward. -Aaron Allred |

Re: What is the status of this group and a meeting location? | Aaron A | 9/25/12 8:26 AM | It sounded like it. If it's still on interest I will hop back on that.
At this point it may not be a bad thing. They would also want to be a Sponsor for the group in order to provide us with a place for free. I didn't get their exact requirements however. We were suppose to meet up for a dinner and discuss it, but that got side tracked by some personal issues I believe. I'll email them today and ask if the offer still stands and include ya Eric. I would also like to roll Helena in on some of the decisions too as she's been showing more Enthusiasm then myself lately. ;) (thanks Helena) I will let you guys know End of Day today. -Aaron Allred |
Re: What is the status of this group and a meeting location? | Aaron A | 9/26/12 11:03 AM | I didn't get a chance to find that info o_O I'm actually in the process of moving and I'll be unpacking my desktop and such tonight. So give me till tonight to start blasting out some emails and contacting our SLCC contact. Regards, Aaron Allred |
