Paul, Very droll!
Our London Wicket Events [1][2] are not only free, we feed our guests (fresh Pizza for those arriving before 18:30) and frequently give away goodies like copies of Wicket In Action. We sometimes pay our international presenters' expenses, and it is not unheard of for us to cover expenses of some guests (like students) and to provide accommodation for quite a few of our international guests over the last 2 years. And, Al has even been known to dish out Google memorabilia including stuff as odd as Google director's chairs, if I remember correctly!? But of course, the main thing is that our guests enjoy a regular (first Wednesday of every 2nd month) event where people that have any sort of interest in Wicket can come along, meet others with some common interests, mingle with well known and respected names in the field, and enjoy excellent presentations which are always instructive and usually pretty entertaining, as we work up a bit of a thirst before popping down to the pub.
