Are there any Western European users who want to have a meetup?

While the HCoop’s origins (http://wiki.hcoop.net/OurHistory) as cooperative hosting go back to 2002 and the community has roots dating back even to 1996, the corporate birthdate of HCoop Inc. as a legal entity is February 17, 2005.

I think it would definitely be worth doing if we could get even half a dozen HCoopers together in the same place for the first time, as long as it’s not going to be just me. And it would be nice to promote it locally and draw in others from the free software/open source/Linux/UNIX/web communities and make it a somewhat legitimate geek event. I know I have a record of overcommitting but I do have time off in February to make it happen.
