Oooh, as one of the 246 Debian Maintainers without a debian.org address, I would obviously appreciate it if we could be included in the offer. Some of the MemberBenefits offers accept a GPG-signed email to a special address, which can be checked against keyring.debian.org. On the other hand, I believe that would exclude Contributors such as translators, perhaps the FrontDesk team would have an idea of how a third-party could verify project status by email validity? https://nm.debian.org/public/stats/ https://nm.debian.org/public/findperson/?status=dm (uses /api/people/) https://wiki.debian.org/Teams/FrontDesk
