How to propose a major change of SageMath?

Hello.

I use a scientific graphics library called MathGL to create my plots in Fortran, C/C++ and other languages, even SageMath. It has the advantage of being able to create more advanced 3D graphics than Matplotlib, besides being really faster. However, SageMath has no support for this library, so I have to use really non-elegant and cumbersome solutions to make my plots with SageMath and MathGL.

I would like to propose the Sage developers to add support for this library, but I couldn't access the sage-devel Google Group, and I don't know how to contact the developers.

Just to be clear, I don't want to replace the current graphics mechanism, just propose a new optional package for SageMath.

Since this would be a major addition and change in SageMath, I suppose I should take special steps (?). Can somebody guide me to the adequate conduit for these kind of proposals?

Thanks in advance for you answers!
