Actually David, I think there's "growing" interest in the whole space where
Biztalk and other similar products offer services but right now I'd have a
problem supporting the concept of a "pretty active" user group.
Here's a snippit from an email from someone who is pretty involved in the
local Seattle Biztalk group, name withheld to protect the innocent :
"The Seattle BizTalk SIG was started in January and had about 30 people at
the first few meetings but only had 10 people at the last meeting so the
user group is on hold, probably until this fall when more interest and
demand is there."
There's also been a call or 2 for regional ebXML user groups. My take is
there's general growing community interest in these things but as the
technology and products are still in the early development stages, it's hard
to really find an authorative body of experience and all in all it's still
'day 1'.
Thanks
Dave

Anthony,
In case you are not aware there is a several sites for biztalk,
www.biztalk.org and www.biztalk.com. You might
have better luck getting answers from user groups, the one in Seattle is
pretty active for obvious reasons and
I think Microsoft people watch the listserv, http://seattlebiztalk.org.
