I went along to a London Scrum Group meeting. The details are here: http://www.lsug.org.uk/wiki/Home_Page
Its a very useful group in which you can accelerate learning scrum techniques. The people who turn up are mainly scrum masters, but you get some developers, project owners and people who have not done scrum before. There are quite a few who are hugely knowledgeable and have seen many different scrum projects for a variety of clients. Food and drink is supplied by a sponsor. The last event was sponsored by Rally Software and their representative took part in the event like any other attendee. There was no Rally sales pitch, very low key!
