I think it is a good idea. Probably we can revamp the page
http://openstack.org/community/ and make it more informative, instead of
duplicating the information on a wiki page. I'll check with the
openstack.org webmaster what his plans for that page are and get back to
you.

There are two reasons for this move: the first and most important is
that the whole openstack community is on launchpad, so we better be
close where the action is. The other reason is that I couldn't join that
google group. Lets move here where things can be managed more easily.

I expect this list to be low traffic. I imagine this a place where the
coordinators of OpenStack user groups around the world can share best
practice, discuss new topics and advertise their activities.

What do you think this list should be about?
