Just got this email from Joe Corneli. This would be a great time to
start working with interested people about integrating Etherpad with
MediaWiki.
Please reply on the designated etherpad if you are interested:

Hi all:
I'd like to start organizing a set of meetups to work on Etherpad
stuff early next year. My guess is that January is a good time. Last
year we had Europe and East Coast meetings, so let's see if we can
manage at least that, again, this year.
Last year's meetings were in Bradford UK and at Olin College in
Needham, MA. This year's locations are not decided yet.
If you would be interested in attending or hosting an Etherpad hacking
event in January, please let us know:
(1) Where you are!
(2) Do you have any funding needs? (Thanks to our generous donors,
we have a small budget that can be allocated for legitimate/useful
expenses.)
(3) What dates would work best for you?
(4) What project or task might you want to tackle during the meet-up?
Other thoughts:
* for any students on the list: you may be able to get "Intersession"
credits for working on Etherpad.
* for any companies on the list: this could be a good "sponsorship"
opportunity - let's discuss any ideas!
I'm creating a pad at
http://beta.primarypad.com/p/2r5ViOLFvL to
record answers or ideas, so we can avoid cross-posting a drawn out
discussion to all of these lists. Do however feel free to forward
this message to anyone who you think might be interested.
Cheers,
Joe
