I'd begin by hosting the source code, issue tracker, mailing lists, etc. on public servers. Google Code, github, SourceForge, etc. Or if the University already has such infrastructure set up on its own or would like to set such a thing up, you can of course host it yourself. You can also announce the URL of your project here on the Subversion Users mailing list. This should attract attention from interested parties.

More good advice is in the book Producing Open Source Software by Karl Fogel, one of the Subversion developers. You can read it for free online, or order a print copy:
