[ale] How Do I Get Involved?

[Marc Ferguson]

Hi,

I have a silly LIFE question and hopefully someone with the a similar
scenario can help me out.  I'm going to kind of open myself up - so be kind
in your responses.

I am a web developer with an extreme love or linux and FOSS.  I have three
young kids all under the age of 4 and I'm married.  I want to get involved
in our user group and in the linux community.  At some point I plan to learn
Python so I can contribute to a project, but I need to figure out how can I
get involved with our user group.  I have all the meetings scheduled in
Google Calendar, but I haven't been able to pull away from the family to
attend one.  I guess at some point I'll have to put my foot down, but I'm
kind of a dedicated father/husband so my family's needs trump my own.

So far I blog about my own linux adventures (www.fergytech.com) and I listen
to tons of linux podcasts (to keep myself in the loop).  Thanks for any
suggestions and I look forward to hearing your responses.
