Well, the communal Zynthian entity gains an area of interest. Even if the task, dies on the vine, and nothing more gets done, there is a possible development signposted. You also get a unique identity number that goes into the Zynthian event queue. #941 in this case. This is an identifier you can add into a connect with Pull requests so the call for work and the doing of work can be related, tracked and pull requested, accepted tested and completed.

Of course if you go ahead yourself and write it then so much the better. You move that one step closer to the "Had An Open Source PR accepted"

The github environment allows these relationships to be managed and the more structured this stuff is the less intimidating it becomes. . .
