Hey, I am involved in the OpenSSF and happy to take at least a look. I maintain a popular python OSS project in the security area so we have that in common. Did your email actually go through, I just searched my list archives and there is nothing for gensim. EDIT: see your email now, have msg'ed the WG in slack.
> Made me wonder whether this is just a PR stunt / corporate power grab
I would not say it is, we have folks from OWASP on the technical advisory panel and many other non profit orgs / individual developers. One thing I would keep in mind, is that being a newly founded org, a lot of time has been spent working out and agreeing how we will operate, so the working groups are all still quite fresh.
