By the way, can this meeting be connected to Angel List (http://angel.co/) in any way?
As far as I understand, Angel List is an effort to create a centralized curated marketplace for angel investing. Seems very similar to AngelGate. Even if these are unrelated, I wonder, whether Angel List can be viewed as something against competition.
On the other hand, Angel List simplifies angel fundrising a lot and therefore is beneficial for entrepreneurs.
