List of local geek communities (work-in-progress)
I talked with a local PHP developer today, who’d seen my blog, and we talked some CakePHP, frameworks, servers, the general state of scripting languages, and so forth. And then we came to the subject of local communities, where developers meet up and talk shop.
And, as a Copenhagener, I don’t know very much about that. There are these two that I know of:
- MySQL user group of Denmark
- Copenhagen Ruby Brigade
- SSLUG — Skane Sjaelland Linux User Group — the crowd is so disparate that little “shop-talk” can be done effectively (embedded systems programmers meet Python users meet Ruby folks and PHP developers)
- Skåne Sjælland Ruby User Group, gathering in Malmö or Lund
Is there a PHP club? A Perl club? What other communities for developers have meetings in the Copenhagen area? Are you a member? Are these communities active? Please tell about it here.
- Copenhagen Perl Mongers seems to have had little activity after the summer
What about SSRUG? :)
Absolutely! I forget, I forget. There is also the Agile Languages Club in Lund. Mostly students, but it should be on the list.
OMG, you moderated away my comment! Oh noes!
But I chimed in on SSRUG … ahem.. i feel like an expat… sthlm rails activity died when i got up here :(
