Geographically and culturally indeed. :) "Western", might be another way of saying it. > Even promoting fortnightly social meetups that are more — how can I put > it? — "IPA" than "ITP" would be really beneficial to the project. > > What do IPA and ITP mean in this context? ITP is "Intent To Package", ie. the prefix and categorisation of bugs we send to debian-devel prior to uploading a new package. IPA is India pale ale, a style of beer. In other words, promoting meetups that are more social than technical; we don't always have to have our heads in a laptop. Apologies that this was unclear in my original message.
