Hello,
Will it be possible to add local user-group meetups? If they do follow
guidelines of "Community Conference Recognition", but are organized by
"bunch of people, who are not registered as any kind of official
organisation"?
For example to Estonian group meetup yesterday came a person from
Lithuania, who came to Estonia and stayed in hotel just to get some extra
PostgreSQL time. If it would be possible to publish map/calendar of all
PostgreSQL meetups in some “central place” there would be more chances for
curious people find meetings nearby, and for small countries like mine it
would increase possible audience.
In attachment is IP-based map of registrations to our yesterday's meetup,
we did not plan to have anyone from outside of Estonia, so it come
unexpected, but to think about it – it is good argument for more
cross-border visibility as benefit for user groups in small countries.
Thanks,
Ervin.
