Preferences option to hide meetups unless they’re within X km of you?
I do not support removing Meetups from the front page until such time as it can be assumed that there is one in every major city where large portions of the poulation speak English, conditional upon meetups not completely taking over the front page.
Significant coding required for those. A LW frappr or other social map would be great, but

Counterpoint: I’m certain enough that there are no other LW members in Central Florida that I’ve refrained from posting anything regarding meetups. If there were a meetup section, however, I would at least throw something out there (although perhaps after I’ve had a chance to visit the NYC group).
If you have a crazy travel schedule, perhaps you’ll be able to get to NYC before I do and ferry back the smoldering igniter for a local group. Although “local” may be a stretch; I live in St. Petersburg; the space coast is about a 3 hour drive.
Some people travel frequently and could be interested in distant meetups. So this ought to be switchable, and that needs more coding. First we should have a basic meetup management working, and later such refinements can be added, if there are volunteers willing to code them.
Geolocation to show only meetups near you?

Er, I’m in Central Florida...and would be interested in a meetup. (Assuming it does not conflict with my crazy travel schedule, of course! :)
