Thank you for your response,
However, you still haven't answered my question on what benefit a User
Group has over Chapter SIG.
The Chapter was set up to help promote and streamline Wikimedia related

Hi,
I never mentioned anything about being part of the chapter.
The chapter was set up to promote the movement in India and it has done so
even in cases where a person/participant was NOT a part of the chapter..

Hi all,
In light of recent recommendations to set up an SIG instead of autonomous
groups, I was wondering if there is any available documentation on the
process and benefits of doing so?
I was looking at

Truly said Quim and Noopur. The idea and motivation behind mediawiki
group is to encourage open source activities, particularly about
MediaWiki. At the same time, it also brings to gather people who are
working and can work in this perspective. So every wikimedian should
welcome this .
Hi Bence,
The SIG process is currently located on the Members Wiki of the Chapter,
which is accessible only to Members. I think it's high time it is made
public so I shall port it to the Public Wiki.
While the Chapter does support volunteers of all kinds, the SIG chair has
to be a member.

I am not sure where this discussion is going to. Srikanth had specific
questions on why the MediaWiki user group and why not a technical SIG instead.
At least that's what I gather from his mail.
However you seem to be asking why a MediaWiki user group at all. For this you

Good to see the little brainstorming session.
Perhaps, we could have more of them every now and then. Even I'm interested.
Keep up the good work.
Oh, and could you share the code with me?
I want to check my edit count.
