When running the brew PR-preparation script HOMEBREW_NO_INSTALL_CLEANUP=1 HOMEBREW_NO_INSTALL_FROM_API=1 brew audit --new-formula oqsprovider

the formula gets rejected

oqsprovider
  * GitHub repository not notable enough (<30 forks, <30 watchers and <75 stars)
Error: 1 problem in 1 formula detected.

--> Submit "oqsprovider.rb" to brew once enough forks (7 missing) or stars (34 missing) are available.

The stats are now at 55/18/121 - so only low on 'watchers'

Might be worth posting to the discord now that there is more interest given the pqca formation? The challenge is that to increase the 'subscribers_count' actually requires that someone watches ALL activity in a repo. Quite possible for anyone deeply involved. Maybe less so for others if just dipping in (I've just added!)

It's also possible to create a custom 'tap', though that does add an extra step for consumers
