There shouldn't be any problems at all for anybody who wants to organise 
meetings elsewhere. It would IMHO be a Very Good Thing. Also it should be 
fairly simple to put details of additional meetings on the web site.

The problem is, though, that the web site is public, and anybody who organises 
a meeting of any sort needs to be able to guarantee that there will be 
somebody at the venue to meet and greet new people who just come along for a 
chat without making prior contact. In Swindon this isn't too much of a 
problem as we have a "hard core" of a few individuals who are regularly 
there, and I've started putting a sign on the table to make it obvious who we 
are.
