that got me thinking, is there any kind of statistic for average maintainer age for major FOSS projects and libraries? Is the influx of new maintainers still going strong, or should we expect a really huge problem in the next few decades?
Also, what are some good resources if you want to start with maintaining or collaborating on something, if you have zero experience with the dev side of FOSS ecosystem?
