I like this, but I think the word "missionary" in the title adds unnecessarily complicated and/or wrong connotations.

It has crossed my mind... But I haven't been able to come up with a better word. Any suggestions?

"Setting up LW meetups in unlikely places: Positive Data Point." (I'm not sure whether I'd call this a case study)

How about titling your post "Starting a Less Wrong meetup is easier than I thought" or "Traveling? Consider starting a Less Wrong meetup". I'm not sure we need special jargon for this, but "pioneer" has better connotations if we do.

Thanks for the suggestion! I incorporated this into the final paragraph but rather went for Raemon's version as the title.
