I found them via the unofficial HN meetup page maintained by Anton Tarasenko here:
I'm collecting HN meetup groups on GitHub: https://github.com/antontarasenko/hacker-news-groups (BTW, thanks to all contributors from HN)
@lainon HN meetups in Germany:
That would be really cool, I'm sure a lot of people (including myself) have never heard of an HN meetup or knew they existed. This thread is building community, and seems really cool. If there was one resource where all the meetups were consolidated, what better place to do that than HN itself. Something like the github list posted by anton_tarasenko[1] but in the menu bar would even suffice fairly well IMO.
I maintain the list of offline Hacker News communities.[1]
I have one Japan group.[2] Is it you guys? Otherwise, I'd like to add your permanent page to the list.
