What's going on with the Meetup directory for third party applications and Web sites?

[Dominique]

Hi,

Now that my group and event organizer tools are live at http://MeetupBoost.com I am trying to promote them via your directory.

1) I see plenty of "stale" links in the directory (http://www.meetup.com/meetup_api/apps/) which makes me feel that this feature isn't active?

2) I followed the steps for submitting a site (http://www.meetup.com/Meetup-API-Testing/pages/Site_Submissions/) and after a month I still don't see any movement on this issue?

3) I don't see any links from the main Meetup.com Web site to the directory except through the API area. There's no way our target audience is going to be looking there!

Meetup is putting some great effort into helping developers use their API but what are they doing to help these same people spread the word about their cool tools once completed?

I'll open a ticket to get that page updated. Sorry for the delay.

Also, thanks for going through the current list and finding the list of inactive sites.
