Bring on more contributors and maintainers

Mise is great, played around with it a bit recently.

  1. However, this is a type of project that (when popular) will have a lot of feature requests, but reports etc. Maybe you should consider bringing on board 1-2 team members to help out.

  2. Another thing that might be useful is to define some clear boundaries or anti-goals (it's okay if these change sometimes), or a list of supported platforms, so that it's easier to dismiss things that are 'out of scope'. As a security precaution (after XZ/JiaT75), it might make sense to ask someone (if the initiative is from you, it's less risky).

  3. A third suggestion is to do frequent issue gardening, perhaps using a bot, and basically just shut down issues that have little activity or no associated PR. Basically, if someone reports a bug that affect few people, and cannot fix it themselves, and no one else does within (say) 3 months, it's probably better to just close it.

    Two approaches I've seen:

    • https://github.com/renovatebot/renovate
    • https://github.com/probot/probot
