We've been discussing the creation of mailing lists in our servers and
we think that is better to let the different groups be totally
independent. Having a common domain is nice but our mail list software
(mailman) may not be the best for these kind of groups (ex. archive
feature is really bad) and managing them can be a but cumbersome. The
user group having control of the tools is also a plus.

I am subscribed to two local user groups in Madrid and they are using
Google Groups for the mailing lists and a wiki
(https://www.jottit.com/) to keep pages of events. One thing I like is
that it is very easy to browse the archives and join to answer in no
time. There may be other groups that want to use other means for that,
like facebook pages or Google Plus Communities. That does not mean
that this mailing list cannot be used to publicise events done by user
groups.
