Hi, after wondering why there wasn't anything in my area I just did a local
group:
http://libreplanet.org/wiki/Group:LibrePlanet_Ham
And I am doing a local event
http://documentfreedom.org/
If you notice, there is only one event in UK. And maybe it will only be me
showing up but I am sure others will show up soon. At least the map of UK is
not empty.
Like one of the talks last night: all you need is a community room and the will
to ask to use it. Unless you already something better! I am sure there are
others like you in Dubai. You just might be the first one in Libre Planet
mailing list.
In fact, I just found that there is an fsf labeled group on the, I am pretty
sure proprietary, meetup web page. And there are meetings in Dubai. I would
discourage it's use as many of the groups seem to be 'open software' and not
Free. But I started my group then went to one of these meetups. Told them I had
a place just as long as we did community focused stuff (only libre). Eventually
meetup was abandoned and we now have wikimedia and mailman.
I can give more details if needed but all you need is to want a local group.
