Nice. ATL definitely needs one. Is there a list of those in the Atlanta area who would help set it up? I'd like to help if possible.

I am available to assist any way I can and I am local to Atlanta. I was involved in setting up the first B-sides in Vegas last year and eager to bring it to my own backyard. Looking forward to it! Reach out for anything you need.

BTW, we need a regular security meet up in Atlanta. I would be so down with some kind of monthly event in Midtown or something like that. Anyone interested? I like the ring of HotSec. What do you guys think?

That looks kinda cool. I generally like the secsocial environment of the events that haven't been say.. vetted to give you CISSP credits, but whatevs, this looks like a nice event. Thanks for the tip, signing up to the mailing list. I still think something way less formalized would be fun :)

Aaron: It is very informal. This summer will probably be extra low-key without presentations, just happy hours. Still somewhat TBD.

Nick, Having to register for NAISG, and it being a "local chapter" that earns you continuing ed credits for CISSP certification pretty much says it all. I'm not against it, but if you have never been to one of the other socialsec meetups, I highly suggest it. I don't think they would be in competition. NAISG seems to have an agenda, I'm just talking about a time to gather folks in the vicinity of other hackers/security folk, beer, and food.

aaron, DC404 meets monthly in the Vortex midtown, http://dc404.kaos.to/ but the website is traditionally outdated. Mail lists work good though.

Not really much reason to have one besides as a souvenir, but has anyone thought about a badge? Maybe a fun/interactive one like the quahogcon zombies game or the ninja badge this year?

And everyone start beating people up for presentations, we've got a lot of talent, and a lot of lazy in the local security folks!

Just curious, Dan and everyone, would you rather have a t-shirt or an interactive badge?

Interactive badges are fun for a short while, shirts are fun for years. I prefer shirts, obviously.

Shirts have the added benefit of advertising the event, promoting interest for future BSides events.
