Are there any MusicBrainz users in Sweden or Denmark that would be 
interested in a meetup?  Have there been any meetups already?

I think there could be an opportunity to visit to the Swedish Rock 
Archives (www.svensktrockarkiv.se) in Hultsfred, and we could try 
to get people from both Wikipedia and MusicBrainz together.  We 
could all learn what this archive is doing, and we could tell each 
other (and the archive) what we're doing in our projects.

Here's their location,
http://maps.google.com/maps?q=transportgatan+2,hultsfred,sweden

1. Would anybody be interested?  Is it a good idea?

2. Would Hultsfred be a good place?  Or where else?

3. What would be a good time?

I'm lurking on this list, but I'm closer to the Swedish Wikipedia 
community.  Six months ago we formed a Swedish chapter of the 
Wikimedia Foundation, and I'm on the board there.  This is a 
non-profit membership association trying to promote free knowledge 
in Sweden, including but not limited to the projects run by the 
Wikimedia Foundation.  I'd welcome ideas on how we can support 
MusicBrainz and its activities pertaining to Sweden.  I think a 
joint meetup could be a way to recruit wikipedians to MusicBrainz, 
and possibly also the other way around.
