I run several dynasty leagues and will likely be doing more this summer. I created a groupme chat room and shared it with most of my leagues to "pool" owners so that I could only go to one groupme to see if anyone was interested in joining a new start up dynasty league I was filling. Within about 8 hours yesterday, I filled two dynasty start up leagues (1 was $56 bestball devy superflex, the other a high dollar superflex/submit line ups). As such, I know there are owners in that groupme that are still looking for a new start up league, maybe soon, maybe yet later this summer. At this writing, there are 81 owners in this groupme seeking new leagues
So, I am thinking if there are other commissioners that would like to get in on a group of owners that may be interested in joining, here are a few things I would need to know:
1) I would like to take a look at your league's bylaws, mainly payouts. I always do 100% payouts less only MFL fees. Please, no 3rd party websites that take a fee/%age. While I understand and appreciate what they do, it's not for me and I won't recommend them to the owners in my leagues
2) New league must be on MFL and please, at least give it a background. Graphics are always appreciated and we may be able to talk about that more in private
3) Obviously groupme should be a requirement for the league
4) I would like to know about you as a commissioner and owner, years experience, etc..
Side note - if you are experienced dynasty owner, but never been a commish, but got the urge to become one, let's also talk. I can help you get started
5) Don't contact me about orphan teams, at least not for this set of owners. They want start up leagues.
6) I expect most of my owners would want non-idp leagues, non-salary/contract leagues. Submit line ups or bestball, start 1 qb or superflex, devy or not devy all are good leagues to likely be filled with these owners. Annual dues range likely could be from $50 to $500, but never know if people would want lower or higher than this estimated range.
So, if you have read this far and are still interested, hit me up in this groupme so that we can discuss the above. We can take it DM after you join if you prefer. It's a groupme I created to discuss some new league ideas

Last, if you are just looking to join a new start up, and think you would be a good addition to the pool, note that I may be selective in adding you to the main groupme, but feel free to hit me up in this groupme to discuss. If we are in a league together, more likely I will say "sure" without much discussion. https://groupme.com/join_group/40851132/BLapEk
Hopefully I didn't miss anything but I likely did.
Edit to add: None of my leagues are IDP leagues, so most of my owners likely do not play in IDP leagues
Thanks for reading and good luck!
