Two ways:
Send your own control message and do a little promotion.

Get the b8mbies involved:
The precedence is there with talk.us.rhode-island. All that needs to
happen is someone posts an RFD to control.newgroup (whatever), include
whines about technical incompetence, do a poll and have everyone vote
yes and then the b8mbies have to approve the group. That is how the
new and improved b8mbie mission works.

The latter would be much more fun, just think of the needed groups
talk.alien.vampire.flonk.flonk.flonk
comp.hackers.malicious
misc.flame
