If someone could make a [[Wikipedia:Meetup/DC Free Culture X]] page,
I'll be very glad to put it on the geonotice to get it out to more
DC-area Wikimedians.

Hey guys,
I want to share details about an event next week in D.C. We want to get the
word out to as many people as possible, including Wikimedians, Creative
Commoners, Mozillans, hackers, academics, and geeks of all stripes.
This is guaranteed to be a really fun event, and we'd appreciate if you'd
tell your friends and colleagues, tweet like crazy, and spread the word.
