Hi Melvin, The community mailing list is for user group leaders and a great way to reach them: http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/community You can also find the list of user groups and links in the groups portal, found under the o.o/community: https://groups.openstack.org Sonia Ramza recently started putting together monthly newsletters for user group leaders if you want to contribute content (or just shoot a note to the community mailing list). https://www.openstack.org/blog/2017/03/user-group-newsletter-march-2017/ Thanks!

Hey everyone,

One of our primary passions as UC members is to stay connected to User Groups right!? I know for the Forum I took time to ping those who are listed as organizers for every OpenStack user group listed on meetup.com and quite honestly it took awhile and I am sure I missed a few among the hundred or so direct messages I had to send.

Do we have an updated list of User Group organizers and a way to reach them directly? I know we have the blog and we have ML but in my honest opinion and what has worked best for me is being able to reach out to these organizers directly and being proactive and engaging them. I would like to not have to go through the pain of meetup.com direct messaging going forward if possible because something is already in place.

If not, do we have something in place we can use that goes to the organizers directly and keeps a line of communication open between them and us? If the answer is no to this as well, anyone have any ideas? I would like to as I stated previously be able to reach out to these organizers worldwide directly as a UC member.

-- Kind regards,
