Dear Chicago Lispers, I'm proud to announce the most recent attempt to organize a Chicago Lisp User Group. Through some off-channel disuccion with about 10 people, we've set our first meeting time and place.

You're welcome to come and try to have some input into this first of hopefully many meetings! Some of the things that we'll talk about are:
1. Who is everyone and what are they working on? 2. How often would we like to have meetings? 3. Where would we like to meet? Same place, rotating locations, city/suburbs, anyone's job willing to host, etc 4. What should the scope of the group be? Just Lisp/Scheme, or include other functional/obscure languages, etc 5. Any common goals or efforts 6. Have fun and get to know each other!
We'll spend a little while on the first 5, but mostly do #6. Invite friends, co-workers, etc.
See you there!
