Calling all Meetup Group Organisers!

We’ve recently been working on a new platform for managing meetupMeetup Meetup groups are locally-organized groups that get together for face-to-face events on a regular basis (commonly once a month). Learn more about Meetups in our Meetup Organizer Handbook. applications and keeping track of them in a central system. One of the benefits of this system is that we will finally be able to assign WordPress.orgWordPress.org The community site where WordPress code is created and shared by the users. This is where you can download the source code for WordPress core, plugins and themes as well as the central location for community conversations and organization. https://wordpress.org/ profile badges to all WordPress meetup group organisers!

We’re very excited to make this happen, but we need your help! In order to assign the badges and to fill out our system correctly, we need the WordPress.org usernames of all WordPress meetup group organisers. Without this we won’t be able to assign badges, and it will be harder for us to keep in contact with organisers using the new system.

To provide us with the WordPress.org usernames of all of WordPress meetup group organisers, we need all current organisers to add the info to this sheet: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1LYnNDDpBQC7przZyufG4W5mdO67BcTTy_yz8eHY24lc/edit?usp=sharing
