That was a limited time experiment, which got shut down after it didn't prove very successful. But from that, it's probably a fair guess that it would not perform well if rolled out again today. There are a few very vocal people who want to support MDN, and that's great, but that's probably not true for the bigger audience. :(

> after it didn't prove very successful

It doesn't seem like it proved anything. It seems like barely anyone had an idea it existed.

I was about to comment this. Its a damn shame they didnt leave it active and lightly tugged people on MDN about it... Hell even a few social media esque campaigns about it to raise awareness would of not hurt.
This. I thought I followed Mozilla closely but I never heard about this program until now.
That’s too bad, I wish I knew about it while it was still active.
