You guys can use the fishbowl as what is in effect an announcement
service. I'm not saying that isn't useful, but nobody else can announce
a project in the fishbowl and have a lot of hope it'll end up in the core right
now. But if it's okay I'd be glad to use it that way as well. :)

Perhaps that's not exactly "getting around the fishbowl". I'm not saying
the fishbowl is a bad thing, though. I think it's pretty useful. And I'm slowly
learning I should just do stuff anyway, though part of that does include
discussion and announcements. The core coders don't have enough time
to actively coach me so I should just coach myself. :)
