There are a lot of software projects spinning up -- how do we know that this one is going to see active use?

As an example for my concern -- I've had a consistently-updated pull-request[1] outstanding for the JHU data repository for more than a week. It is their prerogative not to pull, but it means my contribution is largely wasted.

The coronavirus-diary project has one contributor, no issues, and no pull requests.

OP here (and no, I'm not josh). We need the project to get from 1 to 2 to 10 to N. That 1 to 2 bit is hard. Please, push a bit.

JHU is bandwidth-constrained. Put your effort where it can have effect.
