As I observed that few complains about ansible-lint being buggy or not very useful, it may be a good time to advertise that the project is looking to increase its number of core contribs.

Shortly, if you want to make it more relevant now you have the opportunity to mention your interest on: https://github.com/ansible/ansible-lint/issues/815

I will personally support any zuul core that wants to help. IMHO, this means you know python, ansible and how to follow a review process, exactly that the linter needs too.
