I would love to see some sort of involvement requirement for the cert. Such a requirement could depress the number of people that will take the exam just for the title, making the cert more valuable while at the same time improving BSD and adding to the community.

This is something the Group has considered for the "professional" (more advanced) certification and ties in a little bit to the recent discussion on pre-requisites (though that discussion was for the "associate" or less advanced exam).

What does this list think of requiring the "professional" candidate to do more than just pass an exam? As in, requiring another something such as:

- so many hours of involvement in one of the projects (assisting with docs, advocacy, ports/packages, resolving bugs, etc.)

- so many hours of mentoring (either on lists, IRC, in one's local community, in a user group, etc.)

- other (give suggestions here)
