It made us both realize how valuable it is to interact with people in person; it changes how we read what they write online, and what we think they're thinking when they write it. During our many conversations, we thought: what if we had an Emacs Developer's Meetup, for people to come together from emacs-devel, so that many of us -- who have been corresponding about Emacs for years -- could get to know these people who have been a part of our lives for so long? Where could such a meeting happen? When? Could we get Richard and Eli and some of the other past maintainers to join us? Just some thoughts, -- John Wiegley GPG fingerprint = 4710 CF98 AF9B 327B B80F http://newartisans.com 60E1 46C4 BD1A 7AC1 4BA2
