Owning the goddamn servers

So with the ongoing delicious fail, there are a lot of conversations out there about building our own version, and one thing that got me thinking about was how useful it might be to have group for developers/programmers/sysadmins in fandom so that it's easier for people to find each other when these sorts of "let's just build it ourselves!" projects come up and for people to ask for/share advice about projects they're currently working on.

So, two questions:

a) Would you be interested in such a thing?

b) If so, what would be the most useful format? DW community, website, forum, IRC channel, Google group, something else, more than one of the above? I'm happy to set something up - a DW comm would be easy, but would people use it?
