Thanks for the suggestion Klaus. It doesn't really fit us. I've spoken to
multiple maintainers of other projects who went through this application
process. It's very bureaucratic, may take months, and is only meant for
projects with needs a lot higher than hours (as determined by an actual
interview apparently). On Twitter I've seen similar sentiments from
maintainers. So I'm pretty sure it's not worth applying for that.

Cheers,
Ralf
