[HCoop-Discuss] HCoop 10th anniversary meetup

[Nathan Kennedy]

I’ve slapped up a basic meetup outline at http://wiki.hcoop.net/HCoopMeetup <http://wiki.hcoop.net/HCoopMeetup>

Anyone interested in going to or helping out with a meetup please go to this page and add your name to the meetup you are interested in (or add a new one if you are so moved) etc.

Thanks, lets make this happen,
Nathan
