I vouch for the meetup tomorrow. I don't think Skype or other virtual
meetups bring out the personal commitment of the members to WMKE. Many
of us sacrifice our time, money and jobs to make it to such meetups
and we also agree that physical meetups really bring out on-spot
solutions. Even on the Wikimedia Community physical meetups are
preferred that is why in the first place we have the Chapters
Conference the Finance meetup all happening this and next month
despite the huge cost implications.

So Meetup way to go...especially for the nominees. If you cannot
sacrifice attending WMKEs meetup, would you sacrifice a week for the
Chapters Conference? and your personal costs too? (my opinion)
