Description

As other projects have dedicated community groups on community.cncf.io (list [here](https://community.cncf.io/chapters/)), I believe Istio can benefit tremendously in having a community home as well to host meetings, share them broadly within the CNCF community and beyond, and for more reasons (use of CNCF YouTube channels/playlist, hosting in an easy-to-access calendar and so on). As a meetup organiser and CNCF Ambassador I'd be happy to spearhead this and help organise and setup a calendar of events (releases where we interview the release team, special events, end-users stories). The[ Istio Office Hours proposal](https://docs.google.com/document/d/13voR8qZwG8lKI2_xtvYhN6msBHp0MAdvlDXMUqQGFEM/edit) can also fall/be run on community.cncf.io.

Research direction

Start by reviewing the community.cncf.io chapters list and the linked Istio Office Hours proposal. Confirm the CNCF and Istio coordination needed for a community group, then define the calendar, meeting format, and event ownership. Done means the group is established with an accessible event calendar and an agreed plan for hosting meetings.
