	Which sank without a ripple. The technical meeting was mostly a 
tail-sniffing/bragging session (fine people, but little said), and the 
only discussions of real inter-working served to demonstrate a lot of 
cattiness and the kind of stonewalling that will serve to pith future 
cooperation like a butterfly in a jar. So far, most requests for info 
about technical organization and planning ideas about the bigger 
networks in town have been met with dead silence, over and over. There 
was some discussion of creating a weekly or biweekly hack night, of 
which one specimen has occurred. I don't think many people made it 
because it was announced late in the day, but I had hopes for that. 
Haven't heard from anyone if it came off/etc.
	Not to be negative, or anything. Just saying, look further up the 
coast for evidence of a living, growing community network.
