SocialHub has been the most prominent place for cross-project collaboration for years. This is where the FEP process was born, after all. I suspect that the need to create an account there was a major barrier to entry, but this is no longer the case as the forum supports ActivityPub.
Cross-project forums like SocialHub can then have a dedicated category for each software they know about
There is such category already: https://socialhub.activitypub.rocks/c/software/14
It appears to be not federated, though.

Aside:
For the size of the group [working on federating long form articles], which as you say is not large
I wonder what they meant by this. There are lots of projects that support long form content.

> I wonder what they meant by this. There are lots of projects that support long form content.I think what johnonolan@mastodon.xyz was trying to say was that given the relative size of the ActivityPub developer community, it's a little (or a lot) surprising that our developer discussions are as fractured as they are.
That's probably why I push so hard for discussions about fedi to take place on fedi.
I do get the appeal of smaller back channels, but they shouldn't be where the main business is conducted if possible...
