Hi Cor,

I want to have at least two a year. I really love meeting all people.

me too! :-)

But Johns question is, if we think it is wise looking at our earth and
how we use it, to just do as we like it personally.
So I would seriously consider the possibility to have one real life
every second year and virtual ones in between.

Sure, the environment is important, but... honestly... having a meeting
only every two years sheds a bad light on the project. Look at other
projects, how active they are, what they do throughout the year, how
many events they do. Now compare OOo, one of the largest OSS projects
worldwide. Do we really want to do less than we do already?

In terms of quality, OOoCon is wonderful and one of the best, but in
terms of quantity, OOo has *way* too many events organized under the
"brand" of OpenOffice.org.

If we want to attract more people, we have to do more, real ones, not
virtual ones.
i agree but not necessarily OOo specific conferences. We should more focus on general open source conferences where we can reach definitely a wider audience as on a OOo specific conference.
