Hey Martin,

I cannot speak for the loom devs (Alan, Ron, etc.), though my impression
from the last OpenJDK Committers Workshop is that they are already swamped
in work up to their neck. That being said, I would be more than happy to
participate in such a mailing list. (Maybe, even Remi as well?) Further I
would be more than happy to act as a bridge in case of need.

Best.
