How certain are you that projects are actively seeking to attract potential contributors?
Managing open source contributors is non-trivial work. It's actually one of the harder forms of engineering management, because you're dealing with volunteers - you can't even really directly tell contributors what to do, you have to deploy a whole bunch of (difficult) soft skills and influence and leadership to point people in the right direction.
How confident are you that there's sufficient demand from projects to attract more contributors in this way?
