I'd have to agree with Tom. Based on your discussion, we did some of our own. 
Here is what WaterlooWireless.org has decided to do:

Create three lists
1. planning@ for planning the wireless network
2. announce@ for Waterloo Wireless announcements, news and important info, and
3. wireless@ for general wireless discussion

Thus, on the planning list we can keep the discussion to those who are actively 
involved and on our general list (wireless), we can still get great discussion 
from anyone...

       If you limit it to just people in the bay area you are cutting out a large 
group of very intelligent people who can contribute.  While the bay area definitly has 
some very talented people...something tells me you don't have the lock on Wireless 
Knowledge.
