If you really want to do this just assemble a panel of people who
have proven professional experience (I'll be willing to volunteer),
and then we can come up with a few _good_ guidelines.

These may include:

(1) Past participation in OSS.
(2) Past participation in a LUG or similar organization.
(3) N number of years of proven experience as an IT professional.

Incidently self-taught people tend to be more clueful and more
passionate. If you're going to go for certifications and academic
achievements you'll just get lots of drones who want a piece of the
pie -- as well as some clueful people.
