That's not a problem, really, there was an unusual occurrence last week
when someone who's not really a regular griped, but don't worry about
it.  The Forth software crowd tends to be interested in hardware as well.

>do you think inviting these people is enough of a crowd, 

I think the invitations are not likely to attract significant interest
no matter who you invite, unless there is already technical substance at
the new place.  So I still advise making the technical announcements
first, and worrying about venues and invitations later.

Perhaps so.  I think we are going around in circles with this
metadiscussion.  If you want to start a forum or blog or whatever, good
luck with it.  I can only speak for myself but I don't feel likely to
enroll or participate unless there's something very very interesting
there, because of the hassle of dealing with yet another forum.
