Hi Ester and Tulie, Thank you for the note and glad to hear that you had a successful first gathering! If you want to add the website to the list of regional groups on the wiki [1], that would be great. Everyone, The local/regional group list is looking a bit... sparse. If you don't see your local/regional group listed, feel free to add them to the list [1].
