Re: [NTG-context] Regular online meet-up

Last time I was at the ConTeXt conference, a few years back, there was talk about "monetization" of ConTeXt. In other words, using ConTeXt to generate revenue. I was wondering if this is still on the agenda. Perhaps we could have a discussion on how to achieve this. I have one possible idea
