The (my) problem with such a post is that you probably also get people on
Lugnet that are only interested in selling or buying sets. Not a real problem
as long as they post in the correct newsgroups, but I suspect that some of
those people will post their message also in lugnet.general and other
newsgroups which are not appropriate and which might irratitate the 'regular'
people on Lugnet.
So, in my opinion it would be best to say to the regular people on RTL that
lugnet exists and that they should check it out, but this is a lot more work.
I`m trying to already note the few contacts I have and that I think don't know
the existence of Lugnet of its existence.
When there is interest in it I wouldn't mind posting weekly/monthly about
Lugnet on RTL, maybe together with the RTL FAQ or something, just let me know.
