Here's one way to help get some more attention for the discussion you 
want to have, even if it's on a list with a smaller audience. As with 
any other topic, feel free to post a pointer on gentoo-dev-announce to 
tell people:

  what (the topic),
  when (when you will start the discussion), and
  where (the list/channel).

As long as it is an announcement (and not an opinion), -dev-announce 
should be a good place.

Thanks,
Donnie
