The list is nouv...@lists.freedesktop.org. And driver knows about GT220 just 
fine, I've been using it for a month or two on GT220 already. Don't bother 
about the "supported cards" lists in xf86-video-nouveau or wherever else, the 
driver will happily bind to any nvidia video card with known generation, even 
if nobody has seen that precise model before.

One thing that could happen, however, is missing ctxprog for your chipset. In 
this case, you'll be stuck with non-accelerated nouveau until somebody 
extracts the ctxprog from blob mmiotrace on your card -- come to freenode.net 
IRC channel #nouveau if you need help with that. However, that shouldn't 
happen, since the GT220 chipset is already supported.
