>where do the DC meetups usually occur?
In bars near the downtown, we’ve met at Irish Channel and Russia House before. There have been 6 or 7 meetups over the last 2.5 years. If you’d like to get added to the email list so you get notified for the next one you can send an email to dclitmeetup@gmail.com
