Finding out what BOFs are being plotted is not very easy AFAIK. In the
case below there doesn't appear to have been any widespread public
announcement of the start of the mailing list and I suspect that is the
case for many others.
Obviously an announcement of intent to the IETF list or the Announce
list is one way for people to tell the world. For those who can't cope
with the traffic on the IETF list and to provide a more permanent
reminder, it would help to have a 'prospective new work' page on the
IETF web site where new pre-BOF mailing lists could be publicised with a
time limit so the advert is removed at the end of 1st or 2nd IETF
meeting after it was first started (or when a BOF occurs or the WG
starts up) to avoid the list getting overly long.

Name of the BOF
I dont see a preliminary discussion list on this BOF. That's IMHO is
customary.
There's a list that's been around since approximately Vancouver. Archives
included:

I'll let John answer your other questions. ;-)
