Camps are nice.  I think you should do them.  It makes sense for  
businesses to recruit local developers at these events.

But if you write a good page of documentation then hundreds ,  
thousands, and even tens of thousands of people will read it and use  
it 24/7/365 from all around the world.   I have included a partial  
days handbook traffic on programming topics alone.  If every Drupal  
volunteer and Drupal related business spent just 1 hour a month  
helping with developer training documentation we could train  
thousands of developers to use the platform in an economically  
accessible way.
