This is a great conversation to have.

Another reason why groups.o.o was built: presentations and training
material, video recordings, templates, samples are all scattered across
multiple channels. Groups was supposed to offer a unique place where
such material could be found. Some of these materials are now on
openstack.org/marketing but the stuff produced by the user groups are
still scattered around the web.

I'm not advocating closing it necessarily but given how little resources
have been put in it, I'd keep an open mind about its future.
