Hi everyone,

sorry for not responding for a couple of days, had quite a lot things to do.

So here are my conclusions and some further information based on the
response I got (Mailinglist and/or in person):

- There is interest for a meetup as well from sling and cq-user
perspective as well as from developer perspective
- If I take the amount of reponses and add some who didn't respond yet
I think we'll be a group of one to two dozens
- For this amount of people my company can host us with a meeting room
- IMHO a timeslot of 2 days would be nice
- Focus should be Sling, but there is interest in CQ5 specific topics
as well (maybe we'll do one day Sling only, one mixed)
- There should be slots for talks (presentation), hands on coding and
discussion.

As a next step, I'll need a plattform to aggregate information
(wiki/blog), and have registrations.
Facebook does work pretty well, but I bet some do not have (and don't
want to have) an account and/or don't want to mix it up with
work-related things.
So any proposal for a plattform is welcome ;)

Best regards,
Dominik

@Sarwar: recording would be much effort, but my focus will be to have
well documented results
