Once you get a few GNOME folks, maybe you could send mail to a couple
of mailing lists like Teaching Open Source.
http://teachingopensource.org/index.php/TeachingOpenSource_Mailing_List

To get more GNOME folks, perhaps it'd be appropriate to email the
GNOME Foundation list? What do the other marketing folks think?

Or blog about it on Planet GNOME ...
