So first up thanks everyone for coming and making it a good event, a good time was had by all I think. The current plan moving forward, based on feedback from people on the night, is to try and organize monthly meetups that will take place on a Friday night. The format will be one main presentation followed by questions, discussion, and a drink or two. The presentations could be in the form of a formal talk, a workshop style discussion talk, or even a discussion about some problems you are currently having with some facet of D. There is also the option to have a time for one or two lightning talks after the initial presentation. The venue we used was great but I don't think it will work for presentations so we will need to find a new venue. I'll post again when I have found a good venue and we have a date for the next meetup. Thanks again to everyone for coming along and making it a good night.

Do you have any idea of how often thhose meetings will happen ?

Re: D Meetup in Berlin
Another Sociomantic developer here, and I'm in! Mozilla is also starting organizing weekly hacking sessions for Rust in Berlin, so keep in mind that it doesn't need to be organized as a Dconf, just people hanging, discussing and coding is enough for me to be there!

Re: D Meetup in Berlin
I would like to join. The problem is, that I'm working in Munich (at Funkwerk). But almost every Friday I will be in Berlin. So, it would be great if such a Meetup could be on a Friday.
Re: D Meetup in Berlin
I will attend if it happens between 24.01 and 29.01

Re: D Meetup in Berlin
Awesome to see so much interest in the meetup! Looking at when people can make it lets set the date for the first meetup as Friday 23rd of January. I will announce the venue and time closer to the date. Already looking forward to it.

Then see how it goes and if there is momentum and interest in doing a more open event, hosting a few talks, some of them targeted as non-D users. I think that kind of event might be more suitable to announce in http://www.meetup.com/. But we are open to other ideas too I think (I don't want to talk in Ben's behalf ;-).
