<p>I actually work for Red Hat, and have been running a quarterly
Red Hat Users Group (meetup) for over 10 years in the twin cities.</p>
<p>Feel free to join and attend if you can. Lots of good content -
it is of course focused on Red Hat technologies, but a good place
to network and learn about Red Hat tech.</p>
<p>Join the meet up here:</p>

<p>Check out all the past presentations here:</p>

<p>We are always looking to expand our community.</p>
