Hi all,
well I guess, I'll whip up an email text and we'll fire it out to announce and
committers as a first shot and then post to lists I think would be a good match
in addition to that.
I agree, it is some work, but I always knew it would be. And I still think it's
worth it.

I would think that announcing this to the dev/user lists would get you a
broader audience of people interested in what you're doing.
As Bertrand notes, if you build it, they won't come. You'll have to go
find them. And it's totally worth the effort. Cross-project discussions
are almost always beneficial to everyone, particularly when you're all
solving similar problems different ways.

Well, sure, but "external" is just community we haven't met yet.

Restricting this to the PMCs seems odd. I suspect you want to target all
dev and users. The committers@ list seems like a good target, for sure, too.
