Key Learning Points: Birds of a feather meetings are informal gatherings of individuals with the same interests. They are usually unstructured and ad-hoc.

Birds of a feather meetings can be similar to communities of interest in that they may be organic in their development. Some conferences have slots set aside for them on specific subjects / interest areas. Our understanding is that they may have originated from the world of computing.
There’s really nothing more to say about these meetings.
