Companion to the site change (agentrust-io.github.io#11, merged and live). Applications open 1 August and close 29 August, and the audience is exactly the people who browse a GitHub org, so this page matters at least as much as the website.

Placement

A callout above the project table rather than inside Participate, because the deadline is short and the section people scroll to is the project list. A one-line pointer also sits in Participate, where contributors are already being invited.

On the framing

I wrote it so the funding relationship is unambiguous: OPAQUE is the employer and funder, and the fellowship exists to put more hands on the open specifications. Announcing an OPAQUE-run programme from the org account without saying that would read as the open project recruiting on a vendor's behalf, which is exactly the impression this org's charter works against.

Leads with the work

Selection is on a technical proposal, so the ten open issues labelled fellowship are the most useful thing to hand an applicant, and they self-filter for people who read before applying.

One extra fix

The licence badge said Apache 2.0 for the whole org. That was the last claim from the accuracy pass I left behind, since the licences are mixed (Apache 2.0, MIT, CC BY 4.0 depending on the project). Now points at the project table where each is stated.
