From discussions both at and after the recent MySQL meeting, it seems the way forward for this group, and the UK MySQL community as a whole is to move away from Facebook, develop it's own presence and community, and to fall under the wing of the UK OUG to take advantage of the "official" status it gives us. This also gives us the opportunity for funding and organising events as well as providing venues.
As part of that I'm looking at setting up a dedicated web-presence for the UK MySQL community, as I believe many of the members we lost when we moved off Meetup was due to them not using, or generally not liking Facebook. If you have any suggestions for a platform to use for a community like this, I'm keen to hear it.
There's also likely to be a MySQL stream at the UK OUG conference in Birmingham in November. If anyone has any information, wants information, or would like to be involved, please drop me a line.
