According to <s>urban legends</s> meta[1], Munich's meetup in 2003 was the first. Also, it has met around 100 times since then (monthly meetings since 2006 + some before and some extra meetings, like barbecue with Jimbo, visiting mainframe computer sites, and hiking in the wonderful bavarian landscape). I guess Germany's "Stammtisch" culture is just much stronger, thats also why there is a regular Wikipedia meetup in every mid-sized German city. Nevertheless, that does not diminish JF's many accomplishments. ;-) Congratulations on the new job! Regards, Tobias [1] http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Meetup#2003
