Hello Satellite Beach

[AlicyaSimmons]

Hi from New Smyrna Beach - (wave)

[Em3rald]

Is this group still active? if not I would really like to revamp it! Any local hackers/cyber sec enthusiast interested in getting together monthly?

[Askion_MacDubh]

I'm a wee bit north of you, have just relocated to the area.

[Em3rald]

I honestly think the group in this area has become inactive and im trying to get a new one started. Dm me if you have any interest in getting something going Askion_MacDubh. Im also north of satellite, im in cocoa area

The listed contact on the forums for this DCG is C2@dc321.org : if you tried to contact C2@dc321.org and have no response in a few days, try contacting dcgroups@defcon.org to see if they know about the status of this DCG, and if there is an opportunity to get it going again.

The Website being a "place-holder" instead of an actual DCG site page suggests it is not longer being maintained.
The "WayBac" machine (Internet Archive) shows what appears to have been a "real" page around 2018:

So yeah, if nothing back from email within a few days, or immediate bounce when trying to contact them, email dcgroups@defcon.org to ask about starting this back up again.

Hey number6 thanks for the reply. I went through the same process already you outlined above already to an extent. I saw the website was a placeholder, emailed POC, and even sent an email to defcongroups explaining the situation as well as attaching an application for a new group. It has been a long time so maybe ill send a follow up, I sent the email to defcon november 19th after bsides orlando. If im able to get the group going again, are you in brevard county and would you be interested?

I notified DCG Coordinators of this thread. Hopefully, one of them will respond.

[Askion_MacDubh]

I'm the the Titusville area. If we could garner a bit more interest maybe a gathering somewhere neutral. Dunno where, still kind of new to the area.

[Em3rald]

Askion_MacDubh im still waiting on official approval from defcon, but if i get things going, would Cocoa Library be too far for you? thats where i intend to hold the first few meetings until we can find a better spot

[Askion_MacDubh]

maybe, I get off @1700hrs, unless things go sideways, so that would limit the weekday nights I could attend. Reaching out to a couple of others in the area to see if I can spark some interest.

[Em3rald]

Sounds good I really appreciate that! if you dont mind dm some details
