Would it be appropriate to set up an email alias for geoserver at osgeo.org to forward to Simone or whomever the current contact person is?

Not sure - at least be prepared to receive tons of spam after a while
(see the solkatz award email reflector :-( ).

In the GRASS GIS project, we use for years a moderated list for it
(https://lists.osgeo.org/pipermail/grass-web/). No spam (most garbage
is auto-rejected) and low level of work for the moderators (basically
me). Certainly it is overkill to run a list per person but a generic
list per project without the need of subscribing might be a way to go
also for other projects.
