Unfortunately Meetup is becoming a de facto requirement, just because it’s a ripe source of new
members. This is unfortunate as these members are less committed (in my experience) and the fees
aren’t cheap. However, it brought the single biggest boost to DCPHP membership of anything I’ve
done.
I’d definitely agree it should be one among many, but it does seem to have become the primary way
people find events.
