I announced the idea earlier, but forgot to mention the state. I started a mailing list, and I want to find who in the area might be interested. Join if you can, even if you don't know you'll stick. We need to see what kind of interest there is in the area.
If you are in the area, even if you aren't sure you'll attend meetups, can you recommend a good location? http://groups.google.com/group/charpy -- Read my blog! I depend on your acceptance of my opinion! I am interesting! http://ironfroggy-code.blogspot.com/ -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
