looking at a job in Madison

[DouglasAWh]

So, my move to Madison is all but final. I gave Epic my verbal last night.

I did find the MadLUG and sent out an e-mail about getting a Software Freedom Day started in the area. Would anybody in Milwaukee like to make something like that happen? I don't have the connections to get an appropriate venue and such, but I'd be happy to promote such an event in Madison. Also, this morning I sent an e-mail to the professor in charge of http://www.upl.cs.wisc.edu/ and he said he'd pass my message along to potentially interested parties, but that he was too busy to help out.

If anybody could offer me any help finding housing on the west side of Madison, that would be super!

I really hope we can get something going!

Sorry, I've been rather busy to check this as of late. Once school kicks up again I'll have some more time.

I assume your move to Madison went well? I work on the West Side, but I live in Sun Prairie. I have to make that ugly drive on the beltline every morning and afternoon.

Well, I live and work in Verona, so no bad commute, but I do have to drive to do anything social. Quite a different experience than living in Chapel Hill!

BarCamp is coming up this next weekend for anyone interested: http://barcampmadison2.org

There's also a MadLUG meeting this next Friday (and every other Friday). You have to pay for parking to go to the MadLUG meetings, but it's not too expensive.

So, this is slightly off-topic, but after BarCampMadison2, I started the Madison Open Technology Group. I'm already thinking about changing the name to Open Madison Group (OMG!) but since I already made a facebook group under the Madison Open Technology Group (MOTG) I'm not sure.

Please let me know if you have any questions about the organization!
