If you already have an active Twitter account and/or regularly announce your meetup through other channels you might not need this option.

Hey! Sorry for the delay, we currently do not actively monitor this repo (I should really get around to making this clear). I just added the event to the calendar, so it can be found by others there too.

I have some notes on starting a new meetup here: https://hackmd.io/92Rbcr6LTW2yVA-FL0w5wA?view If you drop me an email to community-team@rust-lang.org with your google account email address I can give you access to the calendar so you can add future events yourself.
