Yes, i have. I thought there might be other people in the same position, I therefore put up the post in order to potentially "break the ice".

I don't know, a Discussion post seems a good enough place for that, as long as Singularity stuff is more-or-less on-topic here. Discussion posts are our general way of making announcements / getting attention to something / etc., and I don't see a reason to discourage that as long as it's not getting out-of-hand.
