 If we can get 4-5 volunteers to help the server operators we can setup a

 to the operators and/or the supporters and I can setup the website to give
 the supporters the contact information etc they'd need.  We can setup the
 volunteers with [EMAIL PROTECTED] email addresses.

This is basically what we do already on the newsgroup comp.protocols.time.ntp/[EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list, as well as on the #ntp irc channel hosted by freenode.net. We don't have enough people on #ntp to help people 24x7, but we do try to do a decent job, and anyone who wants to help is more than welcome to join us there. For less interactive matters, I would think that comp.protocols.time.ntp/[EMAIL PROTECTED] should be adequate.

I definitely agree that we need a monitoring/notify script, but I would think that we could direct people towards existing resources for help, although it would certainly help to have more people helping out on #ntp.
