Even though it's a 'major' metro, Birmingham does not have a critical mass of software developers interested in socializing / meetups.  I run one of the biggest local meetups (Birmingham Open Source Software), but even still we have maybe 20 people at tops at a given meeting.\r\n\r\nDue to my experience with this and my desire to interact with other experienced software developers more frequently, I wrote up [why and how we were organizing a Remote Meetup for Elm](https://www.dailydrip.com/blog/organizing-a-remote-meetup-for-elm).  @franzejr from [RemoteMeetup](http://remotemeetup.com/) got in touch with me before our first Elm meetup had happened, and we teamed up to help make Remote Meetups more awesome.  As a consequence, we had 100 people registered and 83 on the waitlist for [the first ever Elm Remote Meetup](https://www.dailydrip.com/topics/elm-remote-meetup/drips/elm-remote-meetup-1).  We've since solved the 'only 100 can attend' problem.  We also run these quite a bit (@franzejr moreso than me) and have pretty good processes in place for making them successful.  There were some technical difficulties with the first one, but even still it was very successful, and we've got the BigMarker CEO working with us directly to help reduce pain points in the future.\r\n\r\nThat's...a lot of starter context.  Moving on.\r\n\r\nI recently got extremely interested in papers again generally, and thought it would be great to run a remote PapersWeLove.  I reached out to @cmeiklejohn and asked if he would help me co-organize one (as he's also a bit more remote than he once was), and he agreed.  Consequently, the co-organizers are as follows:\r\n\r\n- @knewter\r\n- @cmeiklejohn\r\n- @franzejr\r\n\r\nWe would love to have a remote chapter repository opened up, at which point we'll go ahead and organize the first meetup (which @cmeiklejohn has agreed to speak at to kick off).\r\n\r\nThanks in advance! (and if you read all that, niiiiice)"},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/papers-we-love/organizers/issues/comments/234020580","html_url":"https://github.com/papers-we-love/organizers/issues/17#issuecomment-234020580","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/papers-we-love/organizers/issues/17","id":234020580,"user":{"login":"zhusongmei","id":1431404,"avatar_url":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/1431404?v=3","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/zhusongmei","html_url":"https://github.com/zhusongmei","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/zhusongmei/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/zhusongmei/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/zhusongmei/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/zhusongmei/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/zhusongmei/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/zhusongmei/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/zhusongmei/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/zhusongmei/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/zhusongmei/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2016-07-20T17:28:26Z","updated_at":"2016-07-20T17:28:26Z","body":"@carlisia sorry for the late response. if you register on BigMarker and create a channel, then send me the link to it and we can make the adjustments."}}
