::I suppose one could ask people to update their solutions to use version 3 but I doubt whether anyone will bother or that it will attract any new solutions given what you have to do to use the API in the first place. If anyone needs to use the API for professional reasons, then the existing solutions might at least give them a start for migrating to the latest version. --[[User:PureFox|PureFox]] ([[User talk:PureFox|talk]]) 09:15, 25 January 2020 (UTC)

== Petition to delete this task ==
A lot of comments suggested that this task is dubious. Paid services and deprecated APIs shouldn't be part of Rosetta Code. I don't see why we should promote meetup.com here. I have nothing against a task that teaches how to access a (REST-)API, but please use an open project (Wikipedia, Openweathermap, Openstreetmap, just to name a few).[[User:Wieso|Wieso]] ([[User talk:Wieso|talk]]) 14:19, 16 April 2020 (UTC)
