Yes, we are still having the Devel Meetings.  First Thursday of the month.
 Lately the "presentations" have been a bit impromptu due to neglect on my
part but I always find them interesting.  There are some smart people in
the group.

Scott, if you are learning or know Java you should look at participating
in the group's Event Planning Project.  So far the project has produced
lots of interesting discussion and a list of tasks but it is struggling to
find actual developers.  Go to the project website to learn more:
http://epp.0x1b.org/  Login with username 'plug-guest' and password
'plug-guest' to read all about it.

In any case, you are welcome to fully participate in this list and come to
the meetings.
