[TriEmbed] TriEmbed history and a few links

[Pete Soper]

TriEmbed grew from square one after Paul MacDougal's regular Arduino 
meeting at TechShop fizzled out and he was "this close" to pulling the 
plug on it. He and I resolved to see what we could do about a revival, 
and Charlie West, Chip McClelland, Shane Trent, Jon Wolfe, Carl Nobile, 
Rod Radford, Brian Grawburg, Glen Smith, Craig Cook and /MANY others/ 
helped make it whatever it is "down here in Wake County", while Scott 
Hall and others kept Durham activities alive. The latter morphed into 
the the set of events Scott hosts as Splatspace events. (I helped with 
those a bit until a health issue forced me to severely prune my 
extemporaneity).  But TriEmbed is mostly just a meeting, albeit with a 
consistent core bunch of folks: no nonprofit corporation behind it as 
there is for a SplatSpace event. There has been some outreach at a few 
events, mostly Paul sharing the pile of cool things 
<http://triembed.org/blog/member-projects/paul-macdougal/> he's made, 
but also to attract more interested parties (e.g. that's how Fred 
Ebeling 
<https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/tribute-fred-ebeling-praneet-athalye-ph-d-lc/> 
found us). Paul made some biz cards with the TriEmbed site URL on it and 
many hundreds have gone to night stands and dresser drawer tops 
throughout the region. :-)

Finally, TriEmbed has a maintained web site with a meeting archive 
<http://triembed.org/blog/meetings/triembed-presentation-archive/> 
that's worth a look, as well as a GNU Mailman 
<http://groupserver.org/groupserver/features/feature-comparison> email 
list that has every message ever posted to it 
<http://mail.triembed.org/pipermail/triembed_triembed.org/> in a form 
that can be downloaded and perused or googled (prepend 
"site:mail.triembed.org" to search words).
