I started a Meetup group here in Raleigh to address many of the things mentioned about academia. Anyone local to the Research Triangle area (Raleigh, Durham, & Chapel Hill) is welcome to join. There's a lot that the academic community can learn from the open source world. http://www.meetup.com/Cited-Scholar-Triangle-Raleigh-Durham-Chapel-Hill/
