Thanks Dave for raising up this question.
Just to be clear, the OpenStack France meetup is now actually the 
OpenStack *Paris* meetup but the URL is still the same unfortunately. 
The OpenStack FR association is trying to provide support for all the 
french-speaking meetups, so the Rhone-Alpes meetup is kinda partnering 
with OpenStack FR like it does for the OpenStack Paris meetup too.

So, related to the group.o.o website, I think we need to point each 
regional meetup (because that's what the geographic portal is providing).

How can I get credentials for fixing this ?
