| n4cht | hey folks. marylander here. i was considering trying to start a LoCo, but since there's a DC LoCo that seems fairly redundant, so i figured i'd see what you folks are up to instead. :) | 02:07 |
|---|---|---|
| maco | there's a maryland loco too...well, except that the loco contact has stepped down. two people (i'm one) have offered to take it over | 03:13 |
| n4cht | maco: no kidding? where is the maryland loco located primarily? (meetings, etc?) | 10:26 |
| bcurtiswx | maco, what would be the point of a MD LoCo? | 14:05 |
| maco | n4cht: howard county mostly | 14:20 |
| maco | bcurtiswx: um, not all of maryland is in montgomery & PG counties? | 14:21 |
| bcurtiswx | maco, so what can you offer living in one of those two counties? | 14:22 |
| maco | bcurtiswx: i work in howard county and have a car | 14:22 |
| bcurtiswx | maco, what places would you have meetings, and what interest is there outside of the DC area ? | 14:23 |
| maco | im not really sure yet. i asked chuck (the old loco contact) for a list of places they'd met before. i know they were using some of the howard county libraries | 14:24 |
| maco | their first meeting ever was at the Timonium ham & computer show, i remember that (i was there) | 14:24 |
| bcurtiswx | cool, i'm a ham myself | 14:25 |
| maco | (all howard county libraries run ubuntu on all their systems) | 14:25 |
| n4cht | i really rather like the idea of a MD LoCo. I'm in AACo, Howard County is a short drive. DC is a 45 min drive, then metro, etc. | 14:41 |
| n4cht | maco: i'd be willing to scout some areas in the parts of AACo that border Howard and help you out with the MD LoCo. | 14:43 |
| maco | ok :) anapolis also would be a good place to do stuff some time | 14:44 |
| maco | though im pretty sure my affinity for annapolis is "rennfest!" | 14:44 |
| n4cht | oh heck yes. annapolis is really close to me. i live in pasadena, but there's a lot of spots i can scout in the glen burnie/severn/severna park/arnold/annapolis area. public libraries, meeting halls, etc. | 14:45 |
