Great offer! Thanks. The big question is parking… is there any?

@pitosalas For you and others reading along, please remember that there are over 10,000 members on this forum and reposting the same content 10 times on the default channel with different people @ mentioned individually each time will cause something like 99,990 extra emails or notifications for the rest of the people on the forum outside of the specifically mentioned users. If you want to reach people directly you can directly message them instead. This requires that you’ve been active on the site long enough to have earned any elevated trust level from the site, which you have.
As this has effectively publicized the event across the community and gathered interest, and is now focused on coordinating and logisitcs, i’m going to move the thread to our Local Meetups category so the discussion can continue there with the people who are already engaging with it, but we don’t need to broadcast to the entire global community the coordinating specifics of the Boston meetup.

With this in mind, it’s probably worth creating a sub-category for Boston as well. I see it’s been added to the list of local user group meetups. Would you(@tfoote) or @Katherine_Scott be okay setting that? Most of us here don’t have the proper trust levels.
Edit: I only just found the post How to propose a new Local User Group. Assuming it’s still the way, please ignore my above request. I’ll bring it over to the proper channel.
Yes please use that mechanism for transparency.
Hi Xavier,
I would like to hold off on this and see what other prospective participants want to do. Discourse is really nice but there are other options that some prefer, like slack, discord, simple mailing lists and so on. Thanks.
