The Bay Area Super User Group Meeting (BaySUG '05) November 12, 2005, Mountain View, CA http://www.usenix.org/events/baysug05/ e.g.: http://mail.pm.org/pipermail/oakland/2005-October/001679.html

I'd be interested in going, but not (at least yet) sure I'd be able to make it. If I'm able to make it, I might be able to "represent" one or more groups if they're not already represented/covered, and probably in about this order of precedence (relative to my proportional involvement (or lack thereof) in them): Berkeley Unix User Group (BUUG) http://www.buug.org/ Bay Area Linux Users Group (BALUG) http://www.balug.org/ Bay Area Debian (BAD) http://bad.debian.net/ Oakland Perl Mongers / Oakland Perl Users Group (OPUG) http://www.metaart.org/opug/

BUUG meetings are typically (but certainly not always) rather small, though the mailing list is a pretty good size. There are only a few of us that are rather to quite regular BUUG meeting attendees (myself among them), so I could probably cover BUUG pretty well if I'm able to make it.

It sounds like BALUG is probably already well covered/represented.

It's also quite probable there are active/interested Debian / BAD folks in/around the South Bay that may be able to cover BAD representation better than I could.

There are probably folks that could better cover Oakland Perl Mongers / Oakland Perl Users Group (OPUG), but if not (e.g. due to meeting date conflict) I might be able to assist with representation there.
