Comment (by KestutisIT):

 There is often a VERY STRONG unofficial meetups, that have a lot of
 contributors of WordPress as well. So I also suggest to create a feature,
 to submit unofficial EventBrite.com meetup events, Meetup.com events (ran
 by Meetup.com group), or Facebook.com events (ran by Facebook group), and
 list them in sub section, or in different color with a sub-text
 “Independently organized event (unofficial)”.
 As for over 90% of WordPress users it is important to get help and
 support, as well as latest information, and they don’t really care if
 WordPress.org pays for that Meetup.com group monthly fee and buys cups, or
 that is done by a meetup organizer independently. This is exact case of
 city of Vilnius (capital of Lithuania). Where we have a successful meetup
 group, as well as we control all major developers and designers
 communities (websites, Facebook groups) in the country. And feeling banned
 / ignored puts a shade here on WordPress as a brand, which I believe, is
 not the thing what WordPress is all about. So I suggest more flexibility
 here, and more respect to those, who do contribute to WordPress a lot,
 despite they fact are they official (paid by Automattic) or non-official
 (self-sponsored).
