Based on my observations and interactions during the past few meet-ups and as an administrator of Galaxy, the current goals of the group [1] remain relevant and are being met through the meet-ups.  An additional benefit to these meet-ups that has evolved is an update from a member of the Galaxy team on upcoming features and other developments.  

With regard to the future of the group, my suggestion is to keep it going and work towards building a full-fledged user group with additional opportunities for sharing, learning and collaborating. This will strengthen the community, possibly drive increased adoption, and further serve to guide development of Galaxy.

Appointing one of more leaders (one each from the Galaxy team and user community) to identify speakers, drive the agenda, set a cadence to the meet-ups and drive the formation of a user group would be helpful, IMHO.   

Thanks!

Notes:

1. Build a community, learn from each other
