Any early risers are welcome to join us at the Bootstrapper Tue April 15 in Sunnyvale or Fri May 2 in Palo Alto. 7:30-9am everyone buys their own breakfast and we meet in a back room. We've been meeting for a year and half; details at http://www.bootstrapperbreakfast.com

7:30am ?! Why so anti-programmerish? Is it for "business-types" only? :-)
We get a lot of serious folks at that time of day. It's for bootstrappers, who are founders who are trying to sell what they have instead of seek investment. We've had many attendees who have raised investment or been acquired, but the focus of the conversation is on practical issues related to bootstrapping a software startup. The age range is 20's through 50's with a mix of men and women. And since it's in Silicon Valley there are folks from many lands. It looks like you are in Austin: check out http://www.bootstrapaustin.org/wiki/index.php/Monthly_Get-to... they seem to meet later in the day.
This is an awesome thread -- thx for this info!
Makes me wish we could vote for threads to become sticky. I'd like to see this one hang out for a while, or otherwise have some sort of permanence.
See you at Bootstrapper!
