I must not IRC after midnight, because obviously I cannot communicate
properly then. (Then again, this is not limited to after midnight..)

Apparently there's no mailing list for cy:. But I chatted with Telsa on IRC
about this a coupla nights ago and she says she'll shop the URL around the
Welsh Nationalist-inclined bloggers, which may help recruitment for cy:.
Well, I said "Welsh language" rather than nationalist. I realise that
to some there's no difference, but...
Telsa also says the big problem with cy: is that
it's really badly written
for the most part ... basically, that it needs some native speakers who are
good writers to give it a top-to-bottom revision and set the standard.
Which is actually quite feasible with 4,000 articles, if the editors can be
found. I know no Welsh myself or I'd dive in ...
I nearly fainted when I saw that as "Telsa says". To clarify, I was
relaying the opinion of someone else, for whom Welsh is their first
language, who has seen cy: and who commented to me about it. I am in
no position to comment on other people's writing, and I know it.
Since I don't want half the Welsh-speaking online world thinking
I have the cheek to comment on their writing, I thought I'd better
make that clear.
