For those of you not familiar with JUG-USA, I have this blog post that provides a nice introduction:
http://tr.im/whyjugusa This is a recent initiative that only started a few months ago. However, all the blue dots on this map are already JUG-USA Affiliates: http://tr.im/jugusa There are still a lot more red (unaffiliated) than blue dots on the map, but, that is one of the things we will be discussing at the JUG-USA Summit during JavaOne this year. You don't have to be leading a JUG to get involved either. Believe me, I can think of any number of ways for volunteers to get involved on the ground floor of this effort. We have a meetup group that anyone can join to show their support for JUG-USA: http://www.meetup.com/jug-usa And I'm particularly enlisting JUG Leaders from JUGs in the United States to attend our first ever JUG-USA Summit. You don't have to be affiliated with JUG-USA to attend the Summit. In fact, this meeting would be a good opportunity to explore whether it makes sense for your JUG to affiliate with JUG-USA or not. If you will be at JavaOne this year, please give serious consideration to joining us for one hour on Tuesday, June 2nd. I guarantee that you will not regret it.
