I don't have a concrete time yet, just trying to see who is actually in the Madison area for now.

My girlfriend has family in Madison, so I could make time for this if you set it up.

We should do this before we're a foot deep in snow. Is anyone in particular organizing?

completely forgot about this. My schedule is super booked through the holiday seasons so I probably won't be able to organize anything until the next year.

There was quite a bit of talk about a potential Madison, WI meetup at the Chicago meetup yesterday. Are you still looking to organize this for sometime later this year?
The demand seems to be there :)

I run a Discord server for the Madison mechanical keyboard community! I'm most interested in organizing smaller, more frequent meetups to form a tight knit community, but I'm also game to assist with a larger meetup in the future.

We had a meetup with about 10 people back in June, and it looks like there's interest in one for August. I'd be happy to meet sooner than that - I have a Dell AT101W to restore and I could use an extra set of hands.

Anyone in the Madison area interested in meeting up this weekend, or potentially later this month? Not big meetups or anything, just something quick and fun.

Aw man! I used to go to UW-Madison but moved away, I would have loved to participate in local meetups.

Madison is a bit of a haul, but I would love to go. You can probably count me in if this ever materializes. I'll fill my car with random old keyboards.

I'm around MKE. I'd be interested in attending a meet-up at some point in the future!

I'm in Milwaukee - Madison / Appleton work well. I'm fully vaxxed so I am not as timid as I used to be.

I'm also vaccinated, more than two weeks ago so I have the advertised immunity. I do still wonder if there would be enough people that would want to do this yet regardless.

I imagine that depends on the venue, since public space isn't always free.

If it is small, it might be nice to try to coordinate on varieties brought. At this point, I don't know that I could feasibly haul a board of every switch type I have.
