I'd apply two pithy statements here: 1) Activity begets activity. Start working on something and people will be attracted. 2) People don't contribute in a vacuum. You have to leave them work to do.
In both cases though, you have to be noticed. People have to see the activity and they have to see the potential for contribution. Use twitter to advertise the next piece of dimsum work that someone can use to get their feet wet. Look for opinions as well as work. Start a facebook page and post things confounding the team or status reports.
