I've received E-mail from Meetup.com that the Phoenix Ruby Group is
closed until someone steps up and pays the organizer fees. Well, that
won't be me, and and don't expect anyone else in the group to do so
either.
What do other people use to organize Ruby user groups?
Thanks,
James Britt
Some RUGs have started projects on RubyForge with lists and whatnot:

We are using Yahoo Groups for Austin.rb -- or as we call it
ARCTAN - Austin Ruby Coders and Texas Area Network

Many meetup groups have moved over to Andy Baio's upcoming.org

The Ruby India group (ruby-india) is using Yahoo! Groups. Works kinda
okay for us.

The good folk in pdx.rb are talking about writing their own rb-runner
app in Rails, and the folks down in urug have already written an
RSVP tool to handle their meetings. Up here in Seattle.rb, we do
things the old fashioned way -- with email. (Each group Cc:ed
to elicit any responses (or cooperation) possible.)

I just poked around upcoming.org, but don't see a way to define a recurring event, nor can I add an event that has yet to decide on a venue. It seems focused on one-off, well-defined activities; that fails to define phx.rb on both counts.

Last I heard, John Long and Ryan Platte were planning to write a meetup.com replacement for their entry in the Rails Day competition (I think they are looking for a third person to join their team).

They do have an API (which I've not yet looked at) though. What about using
that to do scheduling for your local Ruby Brigade (and for displaying
the resulting
meetings)?

Hi James,
I'm moving the Melbourne Ruby group over to google groups
http://groups.google.com.au/group/melbourne-ruby
along with another group I organise. It's simple, but like everything
else google seems to make (IMO), it's excellent. If there are reasons
why you want the specific features of rubyforge (wiki or cvs
repository), then that would be a good choice, otherwise I'd recommend
google groups.
Cheers,
Matt

Yup, we are still looking for a third person. It would be nice if they were in the Chicago area.
