Hi,
One way to get to academics / researchers/ students would be to reccomend it to "gateways" for academic web resources like Infomine<http://infomine.ucr.edu/> or Intute<http://www.intute.ac.uk/> or ibiblio <http://www.ibiblio.org/> which take suggestions for new content and are pretty well used. Furthermore, ibiblio and infomine both have their data harvested by services like University of Michigan's OAIster <http://oaister.org>, so it spreads your seeds even farther. MIght as well let them do some of this work for you , snce they already have the base of users.
There are plenty more gateway sites like this out there, just a few off the top of my head.

explain (better) what we are trying to do with Open Shakespeare like
stuff. Any suggestions on a) improvements to this b) communities who
might be interested but probably don't know about the project yet (e.g.
academics ...) would be most welcome.
Regards,
Rufus
