I know of the list and have been to a few meetings. When I mentioned I didn't see much going on, I meant there didn't seem to be a cohesive group of entrepreneurs. There are plenty of user groups and other nerdy meetings, but I haven't had luck connecting with other people attempting to get a business off the ground. Yes, PDX has nerds and programmers and people interested in tech, but, it doesn't have many software entrepreneurs to connect with.

That's also the impression I got when I spent a couple of months in Portland last year. Somewhat unrelated, there's a lot of interesting programming language companies around (Galois, Gemstone, and some others I can't remember now). I don't have hard data, but have the impression that that's a lot more than average for other US cities with high-tech sectors.
