Great. Here we go then : Your proposal looks very interesting to me : part of the interest of FS contributors, in contributing to projects, is to be able to demonstrate through a review of their contributions in the open, that they have skills that allow them to find good jobs. Such a service is great if people would like to find Debian related positions, and if the HR person wouldn't know where to search for past records. I think Ohloh.net provides, for instance an interesting comparison to your proposal (see my profile for instance [0]). In case you didn't know it, I suggest to check its features for inspiration. Also may I suggest to think about adding a FOAF profile [1] and similar machine-processable (RDF based, for interoperability benefits) documents in addition to human readable ones, so that one can aggregate his debian whois with other forms of personnal profiles. For instance, I'm already linking in my WebID (which is FOAF based) [3] my other "identities" at ohloh, on bibliographic indexes, or other forges. There's a plugin for FusionForge that provides FOAF descriptions of accounts that could be used to provide a feed for consumption in your tool, provided it was installed on alioth. Of course, you may achieve same results without FOAF and RDF, but the great thing about these standards is that anyone can mix these sources with others and mesh a Semantic Web of people profiles for many use cases. Interoperability :-) Hope this helps.
