ah yeah, I appreciate the idea behind it - gut feeling that awards might not be the best means to an end tho

Do you have other ideas? I really want to do something -- even if small -- to help maintainers suffering from burnout

I like this idea. Maybe we should maintain a list of modules that need help with maintenance?

curious what you mean by "help with maintenance" - in that they're struggling technically, or not only that per se?

My thinking was mainly just availability of people to review PRs, make bug fixes for reported issues, etc.

I think the social aspect might be important than the technical one; have experienced folks that can mentor & guide @feross
