There was a "How to build communities" session at EuroClojure. In
summary:

- Just get going. Find some people (with 3 your already a group), find a
  place (like a pub for starters) and meet. You'll like it!
- Meet regularly e.g. monthly.
- If you want to do some coding and your group grows, find a space
  (Vienna has at least one Hackerspace - metalab - that might work. In
  Berlin we meet at an office of one of our members)
- When the group grows, experiment with different schemes for your
  events. London does Dojos a la
  http://www.ntoll.org/how-to-run-an-awesome-code-dojo.html. Here in
  Berlin we've occasonially had talks, but favour *doing* something
  with code. 4clojure.com has loads of interesting problems to hack on.
- Food and beverages are nice but not the key aspect ;)

Good luck for your endeavour!
