I went to one of these last year, and it was a very good intro to agile principles and techniques. Highly recommended. The group sponsoring the event (alt.net), which includes a number of Microsoft MVP, are dedicated to using the best tools and techniques on their projects, mixing dot net and open source as needed.

Subject: [nyaltnet] ANNC: Agile Firestarter Event 11/13/2010
To: nyaltnet-announce@meetup.com
We are planning another Agile Firestarter event in early November. As most of our membership has significant experience with Agile, its likely this event will be too 'introductory' for most of our regular membership, but all are welcome to attend just the same. More importantly, if you know of other software developers, co-workers, managers, or others that might benefit from a rapid ramp-up on Agile principles and techniques, please feel free to forward this announcement to them as well.
Thanks,
-The NYC ALT.NET Organizing Team
