Re: [PLUG] PLUG Meetup account


Surprisingly, it does. I expected that RSVPs would disappear once the pandemic hit, but after an initial dip they picked up again. Numbers are typically in the 3-12 range, with an outlier of 31 RSVPs for the Jan 2021 Central meeting. People are definitely using to to keep track of meetings, though I'm not sure that's sufficient to justify continuing to pay for it, since PLUG has a perfectly fine mailing list. It's fairly small potatoes from a corporate perspective, so if someone could persuade their employer to fund it, that could be another solution.

I'm not sure who's been updating the Meetup topics...I'd guess Walt, since he's taken over most over announcements. Whoever that is may have some additional opinions about the value of keeping it alive.

Does the PLUG Meetup draw any viewers that you are aware of?
If not, perhaps we should just let it go?

Hi, all,

For the last few years, I've been paying (to the tune of $25/mo.) for
the Meetup account that's been funding the PLUG Meetup group. I've
mostly stepped away from organizing groups at this point, and I'm going
to be ending my Meetup.com subscription.

Would someone like to take over as the official organizer, and start
picking up the payments?

Thanks,
Paul
