Clone A Git Together Into Your Town
summary
Creates a local Git user group using a GitHub Pages site and forkable repo (github.com/PDXget/pdxget.github.com) with Twitter Bootstrap and Font Awesome for layout, Google Groups for mail, Calagator for calendar and Twitter/LinkedIn for publicity. First meetup draws ~30 people at the inaugural event; meetings become monthly last-Wednesday gatherings. Secures donated venue/food/beer from sponsors, publishes a public README with community guidelines and practices public enforcement; model runs cheaply and repeatedly.
