GitHub is organizing a social gathering in Portland, Maine, at Novare Res Bier Café, hosted by Tim Pease, Kerri Daigle, and Vin Barnes, where attendees can enjoy drinks and discuss topics related to GitHub. The event is scheduled for Thursday, June 27, at 7:00 pm. Initially, there was a misconception about Portland, Maine, being the original Portland, which was clarified to be the Isle of Portland near Weymouth in England, though the event is not taking place there.
