I think this is simply the same reason we don't have a lot of other things we know would be a good idea in Fedora but haven't done — no one really enthused about it stepped up and made it happen.
I was actually talking with Remy about this as a community action/impact activity last week. Remy, what are your thoughts?
It would be a great thing to enable the various Ambassadors to get involved in, It would require a central resource(s) to manage the meetup group and do some co-ordindation in the organizing of the meetup group and ensuring a level of quality but seeing how large some of the other meetup groups grow (I've seen some that are operating 100s of meetup locations) I suspect it might be worth the effort.
Very much yes. I see two main avenues — specific meetups around Fedora, combined with Fedora activity at meetups around other open source projects.
