That's a good question!
I was thinking of going to a place , but then we'd have to find a place
I'm also open to remote studying - that may work better - considering our "terrortory" - we could also open it to LAJUG, OCJUG, and LAMPSIG(I know it isnt PHP, but it is web related)
Any other takers?

i have a mild interest. a few of us were meeting at the ocjug off and
on for the last two years. we are not meeting now due to lack of interest.

the drive is not very nice for me especially for a 7:00 meeting.

some kind of remote thing might be nice, but i don't know of any
multi-party type conferencing thing.

thanks

I was thnking more along the lines of what the Linux Chixs do:
1. We pick a mateiral
2. we cover a set amount in a set time
3. we email or message(was think of facebook group) each other about
our results/woes.
Sounds like an idea?

well, since The post from the Pragmatic programmers started me on, why
don't we use it? I've also got a free PDF if some one objects to
price?
http://pragprog.com/titles/dkgrails/grails
Reminder, you do get 20% with the coupon I had previsiously posted.
I was think about trying to get started after the first of the year- I
may post this the ChixLA and SGVLUG as well as the other jug
Location - I actually live in Rancho Cucamonga, but work in El
Monte(10 and Rosemead) - let's see who all signs up
Scala - if some one wants to lend a hand(Josh, did I see yours go up?
:) ), I'm game

well, in normal circumstances (out of work) I would not mind about the price, if you can facilitate 
the pdf I would really appreciated

that may work. an empty zipped grails app is about 237 kb, so we can
share code. github may be useful, is anyone familiar with it?

which book do you want to use. i have most of them. the most recent
are the quick start (short - 220 pages) and dgg2 (long - 600 pages).

using the jug list might be better than facebook. if you don't want
to polute the list, i have http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/ocgug/.

thanks

Count me in too, and is it OK if we open it up to my meetup as well?
