Sorry it took me a while to reply. This Budget discussion is an open door for proposals, please do share yours as this policy making is also an educational process and therefore an ideal arena for learning! Open Badges are proposed as an award for historic achievements, there is no conflict of interest when you have numeric results that support your performance. I think this discussion leads to the question of what would make a Sugar Labs member an *active contributo*r? and of course, would rewarding active contributors stimulate regular members to become active contributors? Those are valid questions that should and can be easily tested with for example the implementation Open Badges. I would say at least one of the following must happen for a given period of time for a regular member to be considered an active contributor: 1- The member contributed periodically to at least one of the Sugar Labs Teams. 2- The member has had active leaderships of at least one of the Sugar Labs Projects. 3- The member directly contributed with code and/or with Sugar Projects translations. All this data is available from logs, wiki, mailing list, etc. I hope for the future of the community and it's users, the recognition of active contributors becomes soon an open strategy for Sugar Labs evolution. :D Regards, -- Laura V. * I&D SomosAZUCAR.Org* “No paradox, no progress.” ~ Niels Bohr Happy Learning! > Best, > Tymon > > >
