I'm organizing a meet up in Boston for people interested in Racket. I imagine there are interested parties on the Boston LISP list as well, so I'm cross-posting the announcement here.
Hope to see some of you there.

Racket Salon Boston is a meet up for folks interested in Racket and functional programming. Each meeting consists of a couple talks, chit-chat, and a group outing for dinner.
The atmosphere is open to people of all skill levels and interests. We are eager to meet students, professionals, hobbyists, and other interested individuals!
The inaugural meeting of Racket Salon Boston will be held on the Ninth of December from 7pm to 10pm at Northeastern University. You probably want to subscribe to our calendar [2].
We're looking for speakers to share with us their stories of Racket hacks, frustrations, and joys. If you're interested in sharing some wisdom, please contact me [1].
If you know you'll attend, we would love an RSVP so we can plan for space accordingly. Nonetheless, don't skip out just because you haven't RSVP'ed in advance!
