Hi all, We may be coming to a time where we start to see Haskell User Groups or Functional Programming clubs popping up all the over the place. Maybe it's a good time to put our heads together and figure out what we can do to nurture these groups, to keep them going strong rather than fizzling out. One idea might be create some sort of Haskell User Group starter kit so that individual groups can hit the ground running with some concrete ideas. http://www.haskell.org/haskellwiki/Haskell_User_Group My hope is that it would provide just enough material for a group to reach critical mass. So just enough stuff to account for the different kinds of activities a HUG may want to do (eg. Coding Dojos vs Talks vs Reading Group), but not so much that HUGs feel intimidated or stifled. Have you started a HUG recently? Or are you thinking of starting one? Maybe you could contribute just one idea to the kit? More welcome, of course :-) -- Eric Kow http://www.nltg.brighton.ac.uk/home/Eric.Kow For a faster response, try +44 (0)1273 64 2905 or xmpp:kowey@jabber.fr (Jabber or Google Talk only)
