NYC for a group?

Hi,

Just wondering if anyone on the list is around NYC, I think it'd be really great to have a smalltalk meeting group going in the city :)

Hello.

Yes, I'm in NYC. However I'm mostly a Ruby guy, with a strong interest
in Smalltalk; I periodically tinker with Pharo, and I lurk here (this
is my first actual message to the list). So I'm probably an odd
candidate to be part of a Smalltalk meeting. :-)

That said, sure, I'd be interested.

Hi guys

I thought that sean is living in NY. I will let him reply.
If you want that we organise a small coding remote session we can do that too.
We pick a little topics and we try to do something.

Not at all! I came from the Ruby world and, even though I'm all Smalltalk now, I still attend Ruby conferences and get value out of them.

There is a NYC Smalltalk group. I've been trying to contact the organizer to do an Amber presentation, but no luck so far. If I don't hear back in a reasonable time, we could just set one up on our own...

p.s. there are a few other NYC Smalltalkers that I know of. The meetings that I went to usually had about 6-8.

Cheers,
Sean

Alas, looking at the job listings, I can see why Smalltalk is for rich men! ;-)

I'd love to meet other folks interested in Smalltalk in NYC.

That sounds awesome! I’m up for anything, so if there’s anyone around NYC please speak up.

For the small number of us around here if you’re interested I can even provide a pretty cool meeting space close to union square in Manhattan

I'm in the general area (Long Island), but not sure what the purpose of
such a meeting would be.

Re: NYC for a group?

So... is everyone waiting for someone else to announce something? :-)

I count 5: Sung won Lim, Ray Brinzer, Sean P. DeNigris, Tony Giaccone,
and Paul Davidowitz. Sung has the spot. Weekday or weekend, daytime
or evening?

Re: NYC for a group?

Weekday evenings after 5:30. Tuesday and Thursdays are best for me.
