Hi All,

I am a Berlin based D developer who has been working with D for about 2 and a half years. Like other more well known names in these forums I work for a company called Sociomantic.

I am interested in organizing some meetups for D programmers in the nearby area. The first of these will be very informal and involve a social meeting at a cafe or bar to chat and gauge any interest in future events and in what direction people think these should head. I was thinking of arranging this for mid January next year but am very flexible on the dates.

Let me know if you are interested in taking part in this or any future Berlin based events.

Thanks,
Ben.

Hi, another Sociomantic developer checking in. This sounds like a great idea, I will definitely be there.

I would be totally in but unfortunately I won't be in Berlin at the time. I hope it goes well and there is another meetup soon! :-)

I would like to take part, i won't be in the area at that time.
Hoping for the next time.

Sounds great, wanted to initiate that myself for quite a while, but lacked the time to do so.
Lot of people use http://www.meetup.com/, maybe that would get us some more visitors.

We thought of at first targeting more towards the existing community. Then see how it goes and if there is momentum and interest in doing a more open event, hosting a few talks, some of them targeted as non-D users. I think that kind of event might be more suitable to announce in http://www.meetup.com/. But we are open to other ideas too I think (I don't want to talk in Ben's behalf ;-).

One more sociomantic developer here is joining as well. Glad that we finally got that going.

Lol, Sociomantic REPRESENT!

Of course, I'd have to join such an event, it wouldn't be appropriate for me to miss it. :P

Great that this is finally happening -- you already know that I'll be there :-)
