It's a perfect example of the difficulty of the problem.  Cerritos LUG, 
which would have been the perfect one for me location-wise, has been 
dead for years--yet is still there.  Even keeping things up to date is 
an unknown (although it appears a registered account would be sufficient 
to submit change requests).  It might be a good idea for LoCo members 
who have the time to look into those groups to create an account and see 
if any of those listings need updated.

I think it's pretty clear that an up-to-date listing is very 
non-trivial, and I certainly don't want the LoCo to have Yet Another 
Unreliable List.  Not outside of the scope of coordinating our own 
efforts to reach out, at least.  I believe that any list on the Ubuntu 
California wiki should be a working document used to keep track of who's 
monitoring which groups.
