So you're saying?--deleting the super-lower-level metro groups in .loc.au
would be (possibly) a step forward but deleting the state-level groups
loc.au.xxx would be a step backward?

yep, basically I think that would work well _with .loc.au_ other countries
may vary.

I agree with Ross. Archive all sub-state groups, retain loc.au.xxx
(state-level groups), allow posting at state-level groups (for "who's
booking the meeting hall?" type questions). .org.au seems to be working okay
for organisation/market discussions.

Other thoughts?
