“ It was unfortunate that so many people didn't make it this time, but it was good to meet some new people too. I know of at least one person who's still recoiling from the commercialization vibe a bit, but even though several of the attendees this time are officially "professionals", it didn't have quite the shop talk feel that last month's meetup did. I was also pleased that Harry came by -- I hope the group continues to be friendly and welcoming to new bloggers or new members of the community. ”
