This sounds like a great idea to me Jacopo. I want to come to the hang outs!
The recent argumentative tone on the list is certainly not ideal, but IMO it is at least evidence that there are many of us who care a lot about OFBiz and its future. So we have that in common! To spend some time together in a google hangout (or similar) would help us remember that there are amazing human beings with quirks and strengths and weaknesses and the whole ball of wax behind those email messages. So count me in, it sounds like fun!
