I believe this is well beyond my area of expertise and you might have
already answered yourself in that this is well beyond what TC could
realistically do. ;-) On the other hand, the points I discuss in the
other threads may contribute to change in perception of OpenStack as
a whole and make it easier to find eager contributors.

Another fact is this should be really considered per-project.
The core projects are churning well, then non-core not-so-much.

Yet another thing to notice here is that human success of OpenStack
depends A LOT on human success of OpenDev. Despite the split, TC
should keep a close eye on OpenDev progression.
