It first occurred to me that a focused message to devs (if there is a
way to do this) might be more effective than a broadcast blogpost. But
asking for new volunteers has to be a broadcast message.

Etherpad shouldn't be at much risk. There's rollback, and most spam
seems to be linky to get AdWord exposure. I don't think that online
graffiti artists will get much joy out of messing with the document.

Go for it.
