[Qgis-us-user] Reviving the US Chapter

[Randal Hale]

It needs more work - I want to put Point of Contacts up there for people 
like yourself. That's gonna be part 2 coming up shortly. I'm flailing a 
bit with the "github" on this - but so far so good. I only broke it 
once....well maybe twice.

I'd like to start a section on Regional activities. Maybe we can start 
with small lunches or meetings and get users talking in person.

If you haven't seen it:

That's my hope. We all get together and do something that fun.
