Badge description:
"You became a co-maintainer of a package with less than 3 co-maintainers
or of a branch with a single commiter"
activities:
1) What are those activities?
Becoming a co-maintainer of a package
2) Who is doing them?
Packagers, usually the new packagers.
3) Why are they doing them?
The idea is to facilitate the entrance and guidance of new packagers by
following these guidelines

4) When do they do them?
Whenever they want to get more involved into packaging without the need of
packaging new software
5) How do they do them?
For now, they would have to look for packages matching the criteria in
pkgdb and convince the package admins to let them co-maintain the pkg. I
am preparing an app to list those packages :)
Lastly, do you have any ideas for artwork concepts?
I believe 'sidekick' (as in a hero's sidekick, like Robin [batman]) is a
good name for it. Maybe we could have 2 pandas, one with a cape and one
with a mask or sth like that :)
I also believe we could have sidekick I, II and III for 1, 5 and 10 co-
maintained packages. We want to keep those numbers low ->
