I created a discussion entitled Merging Rochester, NY into Western New York on g.d.o in http://groups.drupal.org/rochester-ny. The group owner (dccircuit) has replied on that thread and is in agreement, as are members active in both groups that attended the WNY user group meeting last night.
What's the procedure for accomplishing this merge? And is there g.d.o admin voodoo ;) to roll members from and nodes associated with Rochester into WNY?

general process
The general process is to wait 2 weeks to do the merge. The benefit is that nobody will be surprised when it happens. Then we do a broadcast mail to members of the group the day of and finally we merge. The merge can move nodes but not users. See http://groups.drupal.org/node/39596 for more details.
See http://drupal.org/node/197957 for details on an issue to merge users at the same time. Needs some work and/or a review.

I think we've met the wait requirement ;)
Hi, there. It seems that the merging of node and users has been fixed in the issue you referenced, @greggles:
http://drupal.org/node/197957
The original discussion in the to-be-merged group is http://groups.drupal.org/node/69793 with original post date 19 May 2010, last comment posted 24 May 2010. We've been talking about it a lot at meetings & in between, but only today did I carve out time to reroll/review. And HUZZAH!
Thanks for the eyeballs./BF
