I don't know anything about SalsaNet, but I've been to a couple of SATAI 
things with Jackson Walker (law firm I'm starting with in August). 
SATAI has ties to UTSA's College of Engineering and a bunch of tech 
firms in SA.  Also, they do something with Texas' Emerging Technology 
Fund, which provides some non-trivial funding to tech startups in Texas. 
  They sometimes have "town hall" type meetings that are a good 
opportunity to mix with people.  If you're interested, e-mail me off 
list and I'll put you in touch with a local attorney who does a lot of 
stuff with them.  She should be able to tell you when their events are 
and how to get involved.
