[OSGeo-Discuss] How big is OSGeo?

[Gert-Jan van der Weijden (GISNederland)]

Our Dutch OSGeo-Meetup group (https://www.meetup.com/OSGeoNL/) 
<https://www.meetup.com/OSGeoNL/members/> unites almost 400 people,
which is 3 about times as much as the "old-school" mailing list 
(http://osgeo-org.1560.x6.nabble.com/OSGeo-Dutch-Discussions-f4574635.html)

But then again, a far as I can notice only Ottawa (125), Belgium (49), 
Seattle (100) have OSGeo-Meetup groups, so perhaps the rest of the world 
mainly holds on to the old channels..


Kind regards,

gert-Jan
