In case you have never seen this article for creating a list of members dataview of a Active Directory group I highly recommend it http://www.sharepointblogs.com/wsspectacular/archive/2008/01/10/how-to-display-an-ad-group-in-a-sharepoint-dataview.aspx.  I found this very useful for  creating staff directory under different departmental pages in our organization. You can perform it by creating a SQL view for each department, and displaying it as a data view. This also puts the requirement on those departments to update the IT dept in case of changes, normally departments notice something is wrong within the website before they ever open an Outlook Distribution/Security Group to check the members. Also in case your organization is lacking information this can be used as a driving factor to ensure accurate information within AD.
