This is interesting. No time for me to look right now.
However i definitely do want to encourage you.

I see that you have an initial "Proposal" at your site.

Next step would be to refine it and then move it to
http://wiki.apache.org/incubator/
then send the text of it to this list with [Proposal]
subject tag.

Did you find the ASF docs about Incubator proposals?
Sorry that it is a mess, but you get the drift.

BTW, might also get some ideas from ASF Infra's own recent
beaut "infrabot".

AFAIK, there does not need to be an existing community.
For example see "PhotArk" history here. Sorry cannot
remember its inital proposal name.

I did find the docs, yes, thanks.  The docs themselves are fairly clear,
though perhaps there needs to be a more straightforward "Start Here".

My impression from them, though, was that a community should exist first,
before the actual proposal hit the list...?  If the other way around
works, I'll be happy to do it that way.
