Thanks for the comment, I was actually hoping to get your take on this! I linked to it from the article.

> Still on Hacker News, Juho Forsén, one of the most prolific reporters of Go security issues, wrote a long interesting comment that makes the argument that instead we should lean harder into trust relationships with individual researchers. It'd certainly be worth it with Juho, in retrospect, but it's unclear if it would pay off often enough, in the same way that training new contributors who might leave the project in a month or two is not always worth it.

I've run a disclosure program for ~7 years, which is an open paid program. However, over that time we've developed relationships with the most active and successful contributors, to the point that we'll now give them early access to new features to try out (all still paid for on the basis of rewards for problems found). This is proving especially valuable now in triaging the new deluge of noise from impactful issues.
