Rationale
Being responsive when someone files an issue, submits a pull request, or asks a question about your project helps people to be more enthusiastic about participating. According to the Open Source Survey 2017 by Github, 80 percent of the people thinks that unresponsiveness is a problem encountered in open source.
WOSPM/Checker checks if:
- Any maintainer or owner of the project should respond to any issue in 24 hours.
Even if you can’t review the request immediately, acknowledging it early helps increase engagement.
