As @helenanders26
mentioned, we are about to have our first community-led meetup, so we do want to empower folks to get together. We will have more details tomorrow about how others can do this.
With regards to the conference, as of this moment we do not have a DEV conference planned—but I'd be shocked if we didn't make at least one of these happen in 2020. It would be awesome.

I'm a Software Engineer and a teacher.
There's no feeling quite like the one you get when you watch someone's eyes light up learning something they didn't know.
Equal parts higher-ed IT, web dev and support; with a dash of freelance consulting thrown in for good measure. (Oct/19: Seeking change of pace. Not afraid to take a step back in order to move ahead!)

It's funny, I had the same idea a few days ago and was long forward to bouncing it off you @ben at the meetup tomorrow 😂
Hi @ben , what is the planned frequency of these meetups?
It will be entirely up to the organizers. Weekly, monthly, quarterly, whatever.
We will expect some consistency and we’ll be in touch with organizers to get this right.
Virtual?
...For the benefit of those unable to travel (and/or whose employers are //cough// cheap //cough//). :)
