After some discussions, I realized that it would be useful to write up in
more detail the motivations and ideas around IETF Community Hubs - as well
as what we've been doing experimentally in Boston.
If you're interested in discussing the idea of geographically based IETF
groups with some outreach aspects, please do take a look. I sent the
initial pointer to the draft to vmeet(_at_)ietf(_dot_)org - but realized that
may not
have reached everyone interested.
Regards,
Alia
P.S. Rich Salz organized the last Boston meeting that was yesterday; we
had almost 40 people with 3 talks focused on aspects of privacy and
security.

Abstract:
IETF Community Hubs are geographically-focused groups that facilitate
participation in IETF activities. An IETF Community Hub may have
different focuses, depending upon the interests of those
participating, such as cross-area learning, outreach, mentoring,
problem refinement, implementation and interop testing, and social.
An IETF Community Hub's focuses and the energy of its coordinators
will determine what types of activities are organized. Sample
activities may include sessions of technical talks, social get-
togethers, remote hubs during some IETF WG meetings, hackathons, etc.
