Hi Steve, Definitely a regular ol' meet n greet, no third parties involved. I'm not much aware of meetup.com, might have heard of it, but my reaction would be same as yours, no need for third parties to organize a meetup or meeting or whatever. > Anyway, I'm 1500 miles away from Denver, but if it's a meeting and > not > a "meetup", I'd like to attend via Jitsi. This is incentive for me to take another crack at getting a jitsi instance running. It will probably take me a couple months to get one working since time is limited and there are many things higher on the priorities list, but I'll work on that and get back to the list when I have that running. Once that's running I'll guage interest again. The smaller the group the less formal it's likely to be.
