Relatedly, I really wish Github had some sort of point system to further incentivize contributing to projects. It would also be nice to have a standardized way of marking an issue as "help wanted" rather than having to search on any of the following labels:
help wanted
help-wanted
good first bug
Help Wanted
contribution welcome
HelpWanted
first time contributor
Contributor Friendly
Good First Task
beginner friendly
good first contribution
Good for New Contributors
pull request wanted

- mlinksva 10y agoGood idea, but not currently maintained!
- akkartik 10y agoWhy do you say that?

It's a _great_ project that I've done some volunteer (non development) work for but would need a big infusion of money or contributors to be made useful again in 2016 as a project finder. Same goes for OpenHatch's 'open source comes to campus' outreach program. At least many other organizations are doing substantial and scaleable work in that vein. Not sure there's any large scale effort at building a project finder, but every small thing like Maintainers Wanted is good and helpful.
- akkartik 10y agoAh, thanks. I know him as well (though the handle was unfamiliar). I was under the impression it was running under new management.
