So, here's another question? What stops events from being organized
with more agility? For example, (ripping an idea from Susmit) -
following up an install fest with a much tightly focussed event aimed
at discussing tasks and self assigning owners? Would that kickstart a
cycle of more involvement?

I think this calls for distributed and localised Event Boxes, or
infrastructure. This may also reduce the problem of returning the boxes to
an extent.

Yes, this needs to be thought about. In my LUG what I have observed is the
events are so widely spaced in time that the people loose interest in the
mean time. Our problem lies in balancing academic activities with these
events.
