A few weeks ago I was talking to Mark Baker from MySQL AB about getting a MySQL meetup happening in Dublin. Meetups currently happen in London, San Fran, etc., and are an opportunity for local MySQL users to meet socially. Mark was very helpful, up to the point that he’s offered to fly himself and Ivan Zoratti for the inaugural meetup. They’ll give us a brief talk on MySQL 5.4, MySQL Cluster v7 and what the future holds for MySQL.

This event is a chance for you to engage in your community by meeting other Dublin web / MySQL developers, learn from shared experiences and to make some nerdy contacts.

The good people in the South William Bar have given us the use of their top floor for this informal event, which kicks off at 18:30 on Wednesday 24th June. Places are limited to 25 people. You can reserve your spot on eventbrite for free.

To help with the “community” part of it, we’re going to put some money behind the bar for some nice beers.

UPDATE (3rd June 2009) : This happy bunch of MySQL developers have registered to come along. We’ll be releasing a few more tickets a few days before the meetup.

Barry Alistair, Richard Bowden, Declan Boylan, Rory Browne, Paul Campbell, David Coallier, Ray Cregan, Barry Cronin, Darragh Curran, Stephen Curran, Laura Czajkowski, Bill de hÓra, Andrew Duffy, Ross Duggan, J.D. Fitz.Gerald, Eoghan Gaffney, David Gillen, Daniel Hunt, Piotr Jankowski, Eamon Leonard, Conor McDermottroe, John Moylan, Tomasz Muras, Shane O’Grady, Paul Phillips, Eduard Raos, Karen Thompson, Neil Turner
