One idea might be to write tutorials together. Or, since there are a
lot of tutorials already scattered on blogs and the like, organize
them into a "Best of the net" index on the SeaPIG site. That would
help both our future members and others. To focus the work, each
person could pick a few topics and then scour the net for the best
two tutorials on those topics. Or if you can't find two that you
consider "best" or "high quality", that tells us what's missing
While I think that that is a darn good idea for a meeting this site is
all ready pretty close to doing it.

Thinking out loud here but I wonder if the need for a "local user
group" has come to end of life?
As it feels like everyone has moved over to places like stackoverflow,
reddit, hackernews, twitter, linkedin, irc, etc, etc.
Maybe it time to ask folks what you want or need from a local group vs
waiting for a once a year event like PyCon for a little face to face
time.
