First up, well done on registering the domain - it's a very positive development for OSM in Ireland.
I think the general idea of promoting OSM in Ireland via the domain should be one of it's central roles. Some ideas might include the promotion of the Ireland Wiki page, or how about featuring some Irish users and/or points of contact for newbies? Also some groovy maps on the progress of OSM in Ireland (I saw some at the State of the Map conference last year) might be of interest.
