[Edu-sig] Suggested metrics for measuring our success

[Wes Turner]

- [ ] We should add a link to the edu-sig mailing list to the
awesome-python-in-education README:

https://github.com/quobit/awesome-python-in-education

https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/edu-sig

https://mail.python.org/pipermail/edu-sig/

https://markmail.org/search/?q=list%3Dorg.python#query:%20list%3Aorg.python.edu-sig
(variety, count)

- [ ] We should choose a hashtag.
  - There's a project named #edupy; they might not mind
  - (other ideas welcome)

- [ ] We should cc the list admin to get this list upgraded to mailman3
(with a footer link to just the mailing list post please) so that we have
searchable archives.

- [ ] We should have some stats regarding the unbelievable growth in Python
for education in a page that we can reference
