One advantage of such a meeting+weekend would be that n people
would meet, discuss and implement techniques face-to-face.  The
current situation is worst.  There were some ideas, they would
have to be tried out.  Unfortunately one person cannot do this
since it would mean to grok the whole system.  With more people
there could be some ideas implemented etc.

I'm not saying that we should define a weekend like bug-squashing
parties.  It would mean to meet face-to-face at some location and
also be reachable through the net for those people who want to
attend but can't afford to attend due to long distances etc.
