It's been a long time since I posted, but this seems like as good a reason as any to start up again. C2 is sponsoring an APEX meetup in the Boston area. You can find the info here:

I'm looking forward to catching up with other members of the Oracle and APEX communities. Stay tuned for more blog posts as well!
