It could be, but for whatever reason it isn’t. I suppose I should heed my own advice and create it? (I only now realized I’m able to do that.) There you go: https://www.lesswrong.com/w/meetup-writeups
But this doesn’t help with local discoverability unless there’s also a specific tag for each individual meetup group, and I’m not sure I’m ready to be the one to open those floodgates myself. Also, writing up notes that are up to the quality standards of LW articles is a lot of work. It’s much easier to write down brief bullet points, but these may be not-very-useful to people who aren’t part of the local community that produced them.
If you assume there’s a primary author of such a writing, isn’t lesswrong’s draft-sharing function already good enough?
Not sure what you mean by this; can you elaborate?
Not quite the same thing, but you may find meetups in a box of interest. (I’m tickled by your list of action items—I run East Coast Rationalist Megameetup and the Rationality Meetups discord, and all three had more energy put into them when I had more energy for Rationalist meetup maching.)
To “asynchronously develop ideas discussed at meetups into long-form writings” couldn’t one attendee just start a draft post here on lesswrong and use its sharing features on the draft to collaborate on developing it into long form?
