I agree it would be good to spread the word of Ubuntu Studio on different
conferences, where possible. It's always the issue with funding and time
and travel though.

A physical meetup is hard due to the global spread. I mean, I think Set and
I are both in Stockholm Sweden and even we haven't met in person. I was
trying to meet some of the finnish contributors to Xubuntu and Ubuntu
Studio when I went to Helsinki for work, but the time was pressed and it
didn't happen.

I've attended some of the Ubuntu conference on Google Hangout but the times
are usually when I'm at work so a bit hard to make happen. I managed to
attend the Internet Days in Stockholm a few years ago when Jono Bacon was
keynoting. We had a good chat and a couple of beers....and then he left
Canonical. Not related to meeting me. I think.

Anyhow, as I have followed the discussions lately on IRC and email list
there is different views on meetings. It might be handy to run a couple of
meetings online, then again if noone shows up or if it only results in 2
people getting 123 new tasks to do it might prove not to be a great format
for us.
