Yes, that does make it look appealing. They probably have paid staff to do
some of those things, but it's not much more than our volunteers do. Have
you seen http://www.freebsd.org/support.html where it has a section on user
groups?

What we're missing at the moment is information about how to get a group
onto that list, and whether there's any requirements.

newbies with FreeBSD and he runs dalnet so it looks like you're in luck there!
