Pete Gray is forming a new robotics group in Massachusetts. If you're in the area and would like to get together with other homebrew robotics people, visit the Yahoo! Groups MassRobotics page and sign up. At present they haven't settled on a name for the group or an initial meeting date. Pete says, "At the moment, the group is just an 'online' entity, created just this month...although if enough people join up, I'm sure we'll become a 'real world' entity." You may recognize Pete from his work with New Micros on C compilers and assemblers for the Motorola DSP56F80x that's used in the IsoPods.
