This is rather dismissive :) Actually quite a few people in Ubuntu know about gNewSense and are at least in sympathy with it :) In an IRC channel like #ubuntu with up to a thousand people at any given time, of course, you are likely to get either a puzzled response, or misinformed reactions to gNewSense, unfortunately. Also note that (strictly speaking) specifically gNewSense - related questions in Ubuntu channels are off-topic - just as questions about Debian, Mepis, or any other distro would be. Since there is such a large overlap between Ubuntu and gNewSense though, many questions would be answerable. Do remember that gNewSense is based on Ubuntu and that quite a number of community people are interested or involved in both, just as quite a number of Ubuntu people are involved with Debian.
