Since the post below I have also posted on the User Group Managers list
at Adobe. Currently, from responses and research volunteers and I have
compiled a list of 30-40 Flex user groups and are reaching out in order
to confirm their status.
Response has been good so far from groups in US, Europe, South America,
and Asia Pacific - contacts outside of those are still needed. A number
of groups express concern over the situation regarding Flex and are
following the AF ML to see how things develop. A few groups have closed
or renamed themselves to 'Web Development' or 'Flash' instead of Flex
but these are currently in the minority.
I expect to have a pretty solid list early next week and would like to
post it on a wiki page (not sure what the status is on that). Any idea
on when a wiki will be live and who I should provide the list to ? Happy
to help post it.

This is actually something of an urgent matter as many Flex user
groups are dissolving and renaming themselves since the 11/9
announcements. I am currently co-managing the Silicon Valley Flex User
Group and believe we need to work on bringing user groups back into
the fold and getting them involved not only with Apache Flex but also
helping re-invigorate the community/industry with their usual passion
and creativity.
Having a user group wiki and perhaps mailing list would be timely and
supportive of the Flex Tour and transition we are all living through.
Any other user group groups and user group managers out their interested?

I think there's consensus on Confluence, so feel free to go ahead.
You'll need to create an issue like
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/INFRA-4141 and it's convenient
to include the Confluence usernames of the PPMC members who'd like to
get write access to the wiki when you create that issue. I suggest
using the flex private list to collect those, and I *think* they are
the same usernames as for JIRA, but someone will need to check/confirm
that. Mine is bdelacretaz.
