I am forwarding your request to the pd developers list, as this is the place where we normaly discuss additions. Maybe you can also explain what your external does, in order to not duplicat functionality.
usually the new developers are asked to offer 'a bit about themself' and/or 'what they're doing with pd'. is this request waived for .edu addresses? perhaps only certain .edu addresses?
IMO, this isn't just a 'validation' process, but a way to get to know incoming developers and their interests, reduce possible duplication of efforts, etc., so it's a good idea, and we shouldn't wave it for education institutions necessarily...
