I was contacted by Nathan Bernard to work on this project. It was phrased as if it's an actual thing that does something functional (and I got excited for just a sec), but the more I look around, the more I realize that it's not really a thing. I don't know what OSS projects you have worked on (actually I do: none) but that is not really how it works, for the most part.
- first be a programmer, you know someone who makes stuff. Put in a massive amount of time & energy to learn how the technologies work that you are hoping to utilize. Alternately: have money to pay programmers to implement your sweet-ass scheme & listen to their advice, when they tell you "that's not real, but here is another cool thing we could do instead, that might work ok"
- when you have the details worked out (actual functional code) make a public repo. get people writing about it, you know because it's useful
- wait for more qualified developers to stream in and help you make it even
