Perhaps we go the following way: We create a new-maintainer list for two purposes: 1) for people searching a mentor: they post their intention/motivation etc. and ask for a mentor (and hopefully get someone - this process can be seconded by a responsible person/coordinator i.e. Igor at the moment). This more personal way is perhaps better for our informal group than searching volunteers which can't estimate the effort to support newbies. 2) every question is allowed on the newbies list. If it's not a newbie question it can be moved to devel afterwards.
