<div dir="ltr">This is indeed a great idea, If I'm not mistaken Chris Goldammer was hosting a series of sessions with the name "Remote Haskell Learners'' (in its practical term) in BFPG (<a href="https://www.meetup.com/Berlin-Functional-Programming-Group">https://www.meetup.com/Berlin-Functional-Programming-Group</a>). Also, not sure if you wanna make a new meetup group, but I am sure you can host and advertise your sessions in BFPG, they have a great (and talented) community and close to all of its members are familiar with the pros&cons of virtual events, as they frequently have a virtual sessions.<div><br></div><div>Cheers,</div><div>Amin</div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Thu, Jun 24, 2021 at 3:23 AM Chris Smith <<a href="mailto:cdsmith@gmail.com">cdsmith@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr">Forwarding as I forgot to include the mailing list in my reply.<br><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">---------- Forwarded message ---------<br>From: <strong class="gmail_sendername" dir="auto">Chris Smith</strong> <span dir="auto"><<a href="mailto:cdsmith@gmail.com" target="_blank">cdsmith@gmail.com</a>></span><br>Date: Wed, Jun 23, 2021 at 9:21 PM<br>Subject: Re: [Haskell-cafe] Is anyone running regular virtual Haskell hacking events?<br>To: Jeffrey Brown <<a href="mailto:jeffbrown.the@gmail.com" target="_blank">jeffbrown.the@gmail.com</a>><br></div><br><br><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr">Jeffrey Brown <<a href="mailto:jeffbrown.the@gmail.com" target="_blank">jeffbrown.the@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<br></div><div class="gmail_quote"><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr"><div>I think it's a great idea.
