sardo, thx for bringing up the idea of gatherings.
they've happened before and they will happen again.
some "private" and some "public".
...[tho i'd rather have a "
pubic" gathering :^) ]
some of the problems i've heard and see about prior gatherings are...
* too many people show up, which draws attention unless you are in a totally private or secluded place. you either open it up or you limit attendance.
* unscreened or uninvited people show up and ruin it for others.
* screened or invited people blab to and/or invite others, again causing problems for the others.
* jealousy about the "profits" made on these.
* i'm sure others can cite other problems.
bottom line, to minimized or reduce the number of potential problems w/ discretion and legalities, you really have to control how many attend and where you attend. thus, it needs to be private and invite only. [you even said it below - see bolded word]
if you think you can handle all the work for a friendly public gathering and are willing to take on the headaches and/or risks, have at it.
just dont go blindly into this thinking, "yeah, sure, providers and clients! no problems!"

Posting in the guys/girls private sections allows for some privacy. The likelihood will be that it will only be a small group anyway. ...
