Wouldn't it be time to start the process of creating a newsgroup
devoted to garbage collection? Although related to compilers, parts of
the GC discussion are clearly off-topic and have been continued in the
various comp.lang.* groups. This situation makes it hard to join
forces and look into (new) ways of implementing GC in languages and
related problems.

[Creating a newsgroup is a major pain. If enough people are interested, I'll
set up a Majordomo list here on the topic. Send me e-mail if interested.
