I'll miss your updates on the original fic. But I do understand the amount of thought and invention that goes into working out the details of their world. I'll be waiting, if not entirely patiently.
I find getting broad responses on this kind of meta usually requires a significant investment of my own time--just throwing the gaunlet down and waiting for a response hasn't worked that well for me within the fandom community. I find if I prime the pump with reactions and my own thoughts I get a lot tremendous feedback. Sometimes overwhelming almost. Giving me opinions and thoughts I never would have imagined. Or simply things I had heard before but reasoned more eloquently. Not sure how that much interaction spoils the result pool though if one is thinking of it on a scientific level. But responding or rephrasing the questions when one reads the answers draws lurkers into the discussion as well.
