It  doesn't sound  like a  bad idea. What  I recommend  is that  you send  a
proposal  about your  group to  the main  list,  and we  can let  you do  an
announcement at the next meeting.
Then, you should probably talk to the people who showed interest and decide
whether you'd just like a mailing list or you'd also like to meet, in which
case you guys can come up with a meeting location and a date.

We  can host  a mailing  list for  you if  you wish  (like idr at svlug.org  or
something like that)
