the next PTG is confirmed, and is in a time and region that meets the community expectations for the next ops meetups, so i think giving it a go is fine and appropriate.
If no more PTGs happen, or if they become less appropriate somehow, kick-starting the independent events again is quite easy since these are some of the most no-frills events I've been to - a venue, lunch, wifi, some content etherpads, some moderators, you can have an Ops Meetup!
