Hi, 
I can surely say that the interest on the topic is very high, and there is a community (maybe not so big as in U.S.) that would definitively participate. 
I would definitively going on with this idea, also as a starting point to create a group of librarian/developer in Italy
I will try to forward this to some people that are interested on the topic.

Nicola

[1] My general impression is that actual coding in libraries is rare, but I could ask around among librarians I know here and see what they say. There are some libraries that have had to create their own systems, and this might be a good outlet for those folks. It could also bring out projects that aren't well known.
