Hu :)
I'm surprised that you don't know about the nice contributors.d.o
website.
I tend to miss such things. Maybe I'm reading the mailing lists too
superficially. I was equally surprised when puiparts came up, or debtags
(which I never supplied data too since I was kind of expecting lintian
to complain when it became important enouth).
The importance of it is that it is used e.g. for
- new DM/DD applicants
- DebConf bursary requests
(probably more)
Baiscally it's an attempt to summarize "What has this person
contributed to Debian?"
Then it should definetely also search for acknowledgements in commit
_messages_ and changelog entries.
Greetings
Marc
