Roy, don't you think it would make more sense to take a big portion of local user group activities online?
BTW, there doesn't seem to be one for asp.net.
I realy think that the Tapuzer group will help other programmer to meet this world of .net.
From my point of view, as a passive friend of tapuz, I see two good things:
1) The most of the people in tapuz are begginers that just learning, start reading or doing a simple project for school.
For those people, a User Group is like a festival, where they can meet new friends and learn more about this world of .net.
2) I can see more and more people, like those in 1, that will meet you and other User Group leaders for the first time and I am sure that some of them will start participating in those groups.
For conclusion, I see this user group as a temporary start for all those new/young programmers that want to step ahead and be the next generation of the israeli .net world.
