I made an approach to the Bangla pedia people about running an event
in London, but not had any interest. I may try another tack, if I find
a language where they are interested in a London event I'll post
something on the UK wiki.

The current arrangements suit me, but I'm conscious that under 18s and

Are most of the people interested in this located in London? If not I could
possibly look into organising a Hackathon somewhere in the East Midlands
