Paul, For this application having a well defined region isn't a big issue. To me it's more of "if you are interested, here is a nearby OSM group(s)." I think as we learn how users react to the feature, we can find ways to improve it. To that end, I gave Metro Vancouver as an area to github issue. It probably should extend out more than just the metro relation but I felt it was a good start.
