How about some more international meet ups? I realise most people here are New Zealand based but some of us are elsewhere in the world.


cheers

We had a small gathering in Sydney during the CeBIT (sponsored by Telecom NZ)... We can certainly get out there, but can't guarantee free food and drinks!

I was thinking of an upside down meeting so to speak. Sydney is a bit "local"! Not too worried about the free food and drinks but always helps to ease the pain
