Hey DAemon.
Still waiting to hear back from a few places round Melbourne that I've
contacted. A lot of them are keen to have this sort of stuff going
on, but would prefer if their staff were involved. Hence why we need
more people in this group to grow the possibilities of finding
somewhere to have a meetup.
When I was having initial GORM issues, this set of articles helped me
out alot:

its nice to learn from others mistakes sometimes!
Otherwise, if you think you've got it right and its a bug in Grails
that you're dealing with feel free to raise a JIRA here
http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GRAILS I've raised a few so far and
Graeme is always really helpful.
