    Wouldn’t reviewing the reports and the contributions instead would be faster even if most of them are wrong?

    No. That’s what this whole post is about. The current state is unsustainable and a better system is needed.

    I don’t think anybody has the answers to your other questions yet - that’s the whole point of the discussion. Open source projects are facing a new challenge and the community as a whole needs to do some brainstorming and experimentation to figure out how to solve it. Video interviews may not be the right solution at all, it’s just one idea among others.
