Our Dutch OSGeo-Meetup group (https://www.meetup.com/OSGeoNL/) <https://www.meetup.com/OSGeoNL/members/> unites almost 400 people, which is 3 about times as much as the "old-school" mailing list (http://osgeo-org.1560.x6.nabble.com/OSGeo-Dutch-Discussions-f4574635.html)

But then again, a far as I can notice only Ottawa (125), Belgium (49), Seattle (100) have OSGeo-Meetup groups, so perhaps the rest of the world mainly holds on to the old channels..


Kind regards,

gert-Jan

IMHO not at all... using mailing list is an "old way" to manage a community. Fortunally or Unfortunally, most of community is using chat channels related with phone numbers (and/or not). I can't figure out if 33k in a ML is ten times community in IRC types channels, but for sure is a bigger community.

    Hi All,

    Thanks for the responses- I was looking for a very loose figure for
    the community as a whole, so for my purposes the 33K unique
    subscribers to the mailing lists works well. The graphs of charter
    members per country from the OSGeo AGM slides are also really helpful.
    (Thanks Jorge Sanz).

    (FYI I'm not doing science with these figures, it's just some factoids
    for the purposes of a talk I'll be giving soon)

    Best

    Jo
