Hey Mathijs - great to meet you.
I'm wondering if anybody is interested in meeting up now and then for a hackaton or just for a beer. I could certainly help out organizing. Maybe for starters, is anyone going to the Gartner Portals Summit in LA end of March?
I'm UK based so I'm not likely to be there very often - but if I'm in town...
There are already a few ASF folk who get together in Boston once a month or so. I suggest you sync with them, the more the merrier. We have a list for organising informal get togethers ([email protected])
The Conference Committee and Travel Assistance Committee will also provide support for people wanting to put together project meetups that meet certain requirements (essentially they must inclusive and have an outreach remit).
Of course, there's nothing stopping you meeting up with just Rave folk, but bear in mind that this will exclude significant numbers in the community and as such can have negative effects on the community as a whole. This doesn't mean you can't do it, in fact you should, but bear in mind some of us will be jealous ;-)
