I tried to contact the Hacktoberfest organisers about registering a seperate project, and I didn't get a response, so if you know who to contact about this that would be great,
As per my understanding, for a project to participate in Hacktoberfest meant that a few issues need to be marked with the "hacktoberfest" label. Similar to what has been in the Uyuni project: https://github.com/uyuni-project/uyuni/issues/2559 This is the only issue I could find when I searched for "hacktoberfest" label for any SUSE project. This is also explained in the FAQ page of the event: https://hacktoberfest.digitalocean.com/faq As a maintainer, how do I encourage contributions to my repos? Create issues for anything you’d like contributors to help with, making sure to give them a Hacktoberfest label so they’re easier to discover. You can also share issues or repositories on Twitter, using #Hacktoberfest. We’ll try to retweet as many as we can for contributors to see Regards, Srinidhi.
