I don't think this is it. I think it's more about (1) marketing and discoverability and (2) ease for current maintainers. Getting new contributors is overrated

Getting new contributors is overrated for OSS unless they are an exceptional contributor (like if a big org were to contribute).
Main incentive is getting more consumers of the project (increase popularity) and making it more convenient for current team.
- fileeditview 6y agoI agree but think it's a bit of both and depends on the project. I e.g. don't think SDL needs more exposure. Everyone in game dev knows SDL.. many game engines / frameworks are built on top of it.
