Will you announce that you're the go-to person?
Yep!
Are writers who aren't in the MPP eligible to get Boosted?
Yep!
Are editors who aren't in the MPP (e.g. from India) eligible to become Boost Curators?
Nope! Payments are processed through MPP, so being in MPP is required to be a Boost Beta participant.
Apparently some Boost Curators from the community get paid a bonus. Other's don't. Is this true?
Yes.
How long does it take to get feedback once applied to become a Boost Curator?
Months. The waitlist is currently 550 people long, and things are still very manual in terms of onboarding folks, so it's a very slow process.
Will there be a list of pubs available with editors eligible to nominate stories?
Not officially. Some editors do not wish to be public about their participation because it can attract the attention of spammers.
How many editors do you plan to onboard this year? What do you exactly mean with *scaling*?
Hopefully hundreds. Ultimately, I'd like the program to scale up to be open to thousands of folks, but the in-product tools haven't been built yet and the current beta program processes won't scale up to more than a couple hundred participants.
