Re: Maven Meetup In Amsterdam?
I'd reallly believe that a Maven Meetup in Amsterdam is a very good idea and a very nice place to share our Maven knowledge, too many times felt by junior developers as highly black magic ;) And for us (Sourcesense) to discuss some of our work in Sourcesense around Maven ALM support [1] and around Alfresco ECM Maven support [2]. Any other maven user/dev interested to join (I'm extending the request to the user list to get some more attendees)? I believe that getting to 15/20~ attendees is to be considered the treshold for organizing this. I will be also forwarding this email to my customers to get more attention around the topic.

We're a couple (3-5) developers from Sourcesense NL, based in Amsterdam. We would be interested in coming, and also giving a short talk on Application Lifecycle Management with Maven. Since we're based in Amsterdam, we could also help organizing or drum up some more local developers. @nick you're probably there, more people from IProfs interested?

Can you organize between 20 and 100 people from your project, and put up an agenda with speakers and talks? Also, we'll have to come up with some sponsors. To give you an idea - last years Meetups were sponsored by 2 to 4 sponsors per project, paying roughly 1000 euro each to cover all costs. These sponsors will then become official ApacheCon Meetup sponsors and get marketed like that on the ApacheCon website. Right now, the planners have asked me to come up with a list of Apache projects that would be interested in the idea. If you're interested, please let me know ASAP, as I need to follow up on Monday to be able to be in time with all the marketing stuff going on around ApacheCon.

Hi Arje, seems there's some interested people in a Maven Meetup, how can we proceed? can we get the wiki created for people to signup and see how many we are?
