Josh, I read a reference to a Josh Davis of Wired Mag in this article and thought of you. We're putting together our 2013 JUG speaker schedule for GatorJUG, OrlandoJUG and Senejug - let me know if you have some interest in Florida or Africa!
Thanks for coming to Gainesville and speaking about the Grails Portal. Even without some prerequisite programming knowledge, the presentation was informative to me and generated some interesting discussions.
All the best,
Justin
