Yes. When we discussed it recently, Liam suggested the format of 2 days "internal" conf + 1 day Wikipedia Academy for the general public. I really like this idea. I consider any "conf" style event would tick the box for meetup, and having a general public focused event gives us a good reason to get and pursue press.
