However, IMHO, it would be good to start using Alfresco's blogging facilities, maybe it's wiki functionality, and it's automated email alerts and RSS feeds.
I like the idea of wiki functionality especially for translation. We on German doku team tried to translate the documentation by wiki: Having the original text in little bit by bit and translating and reviewing/discussing that. At the end someone put it to one piece, complement screenshots etc. and then get the document to reviewing as a whole. It seems that these are more steps but then you can get much more contributors even for little pieces. So we got translating the "Getting started". Maybe this is also something for the "EasyHacks for documentation".
You could also consider Twitter as a good channel for updates, both automated and manual. Using Twitter would do away with the need to sign-up for and follow a mailing list, and put you closer to potential contributors from the huge Twitter membership.
But if I don't twitter (as I do) I'm out of contribution. And so this way is against simple contribution.
