I'm thinking of starting a meetup group in Auckland, NZ, but would like to gauge the interest in such a group first. I know I'm supposed to just plan a meetup, but from a search of the site it looks like Auckland groups have failed to get momentum in the past, so I'd like to arrange for a time and place such that at least a couple of people can definitely attend.

Reply if you're interested, and then we'll sort something out.

I think gauging interest for meetups is usually presented as a discussion post so that it's more likely to be noticed, but I'm not sure I'm right about that. Anyone else notice a pattern?

Thanks. I thought that that might be the case, but I wasn't sure either. If I don't have anyone expressing interest here by Sunday 6pm local time I'll make a discussion post, and if I don't get any replies to that in a day or two then I'll just add a meetup.
