Chris, Currently geo-targeting is only accurate to country level (due to ISPs randomly moving IPs around within a country - Magnus, is that correct?), so the only surefire way of targeting all of Cambridge is to scoop up all of the UK, unfortunately.

Can I suggest some rather tighter geotargeting for that notice - at the moment it appears to aim at every Wikipedian in a box with Belfast and Calais as its opposite corners....

I have posted a page for the next Cambridge meetup:
A site notice for this event would be helpful.
I've set up an en.wp geonotice for it (which appears at the top of watchlists). In general, the place to request these is at: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Geonotice and any admin can make them live, by editing the page at: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Geonotice.js
