The tool has been making the rounds, but I've not yet found a place where
it is used. It would be good to see how it works, how people interact with
it, etc

It is also pretty new, so a short look at the merge PRs finds stuff like
https://github.com/mitchellh/vouch/pull/15 - might be worth waiting until
people have found the main/most exploits :-/

Overall I think it is an interesting idea, but I'm not sure it will work.
You want a big "base" of repos that provide trust (numpy, pandas,
scikit-learn, more of PyData, etc), but the bigger you make that base the
less strong the signal is. It also should be easy to be a newcomer and get
verified, because if we routinely interact with unverified people and work
with them then it isn't soo useful to have the system. And I think
scikit-learn should remain open to newcomers. So it is a bit of a catch 22
situation.
