Hi Alex.  Thanks for your interest in Ncrack!  Note that the Ncrack
section of our ideas page says:

"Competition for this position is extremely fierce, so we recommend
 applying for a different project if there is one you like equally
 well."

So if you want to apply for this one, you really need to distinguish
yourself.  An example might be to write an efficient and effective
Ncrack module (or other useful patch) in time for your application.
While competition for this role is fierce, we're not afraid to sponsor
multiple Ncrack developers if they are really exceptional.

Cheers,
-F
