| nnonix | Anyone playing with Gnome 3 yet? | 04:01 |

| tonyyarusso | nope | 04:59 |
| damian | Well this is interesting, I'm connected through an android app. | 06:41 |
| damian | Anyone know of any FOSS events or groups besides our LoCo? | 06:42 |
| tonyyarusso | damian: I assume you mean in Minnesota? | 06:43 |
| damian | Aye | 06:43 |
| tonyyarusso | Things with varying degrees of overlap that I can think of off the top of my head: | 06:43 |
| tonyyarusso | TCLUG / Penguins Unbound (St. Paul), K-LUG (Rochester), Northfield LUG | 06:44 |
| tonyyarusso | FreeGeek Twin Cities | 06:44 |
| tonyyarusso | MinneBar | 06:44 |
| tonyyarusso | Beyond the Yellow Ribbon | 06:44 |
| damian | Wow, where did you come across them? | 06:45 |
| tonyyarusso | which? | 06:45 |
| damian | I mean is there a central site for this stuff (the ones I went to didn't have MN) | 06:46 |
| tonyyarusso | There's also a UNIX user group, a generic PC one, and an Association for Women in Computing chapter, and I think a LinuxChix chapter. | 06:46 |
| tonyyarusso | damian: Nope - this is in my head :P | 06:46 |
| tonyyarusso | Gathered from multiple sources. | 06:46 |
| tonyyarusso | Plus there are a couple of companies / organizations that use or support FLOSS, such as the U of M CompSci department, CodeWeavers (WINE/CrossOver), and Nagios Enterprises (my employer). | 06:47 |
| tonyyarusso | So yeah, there is a LOT of potential for collaboration that we haven't even begun to tap. | 06:48 |
| tonyyarusso | Of those, the ones that we've ever done anything with so far are Penguins Unbound and the UofM, and I've had people contact me asking about possibilities from FreeGeek and BtYR, and I have an outside-of-MN-Ubuntu connection to AWC and LinuxChix. | 06:49 |
| damian | Happen to know if any of them holding an event? | 06:55 |
| damian | I was in the browser, so I didn't realize you had made more msgs. | 06:56 |
| tonyyarusso | no idea | 06:58 |
| tonyyarusso | well, PU does once a month. | 06:58 |
| damian | I'm gonna try the next PU, thanks for the help. | 07:03 |
