On a similar note I've been doing some publicity, but from the developer side. Basicaly, there are lots of projects that have irc channels, and many of those folks are interested in getting involved in other projects. Of course, its hard to convince people unless it works for particular distros... debian and ubuntu come to mind. But there is a lot of interest in helping out, and I believe a good recruiting method is joining the various freenode channels and just talking a bit about the project.
