Check out http://www.hardcider.org for the local OS X hardcore users. 
I'm going to set up a mailing list but first I have to move the mailing
list services to another machine (TriLUG is actually hosting this
group's mailing lists and we're in the middle of a major infrastructure
change ourselves).

That's exactly the spirit behind Hard Cider.  There is an existing Mac
users group in the area but they don't cater to the UNIX-y guys.  There
is also an existing BSD group but they only meet when they feel like it
and the meetings are just pizza & beer socials.  Not to mention they
intentionally meet on the same night as TriLUG.  Hard Cider is being
started by a handful of TriLUG members, headed up by Bill Vinson, with a
few others working on getting the web site together & mailing lists
(thats on my plate), etc.
