🔍 Code auditors
Rust, payment-flow, and OpenPGP reviewers especially. The source release for public audit is being prepared — if you'd review it, tell us now and you'll get it first. Read the threat model adversarially; the stage gates adopted corrections before, and will again.
🛠️ Rust builders
Axum/PostgreSQL work, seller-helper tooling, deployment profiles, and the unglamorous retention and backup jobs that keep an instance healthy. Small, gated, test-first contributions fit how this project already works.
🧪 Usability testers
The open human gate is GPG: can a normal seller encrypt, sign a subaddress pool, and manage keys without giving up? If you'd sit for a guided usability test — no prior GPG experience wanted, in fact preferred — you're exactly who we need.
Reach out on Twitter — @CameronRuggles — or in the Vespiary forum, and say which of the three you are. Adults only, please.
