Hey Everybody, This is just a quick note to let you know that we're going to be kicking off a series of Smalltalk Meetups this January. The first is going to be held at the Starbuck's in Chinatown (800 7th St., NW, Washington, DC, 20001) at 7:00PM on January 20th, 2005. More information and an RSVP form can be found at:

I don't think I need to tell anyone in this group about the joys of Smalltalking. But from time to time I feel a bit isolated. All my peers are rambling on and on about how wonderful Java is, or even Python. Just once I would like to sit amongst people who are crazy about Smalltalk while sipping coffee. So if you're in the Washington, DC area, we would love to have you attend.
This meeting is intended to be the kick-off for a series of monthly meetings of the Washington, DC Smalltalk community. We're organizing our meetups on the meetup.com site and will be putting together a program for future meetings after hearing what people's interests are at this meeting.
As most of my recent Smalltalking has been done with Squeak, I'll likely be giving a brief intro to Squeak for any attendees that are interested. James Robertson of CinCom has already RSVP'd. Though he's not scheduled to deliver a presentation, he's a very good resource for getting more information about the ParcPlace / Digitalk branch of the Smalltalk tree.
-Sincerely, -Matt Hamrick
