Apart from having your name in the report, if you're one of the people in the list, this is useful when analysed, and would be even more useful when extended. For example, you might want to have a list of people who don't work for vendors to be listed, explain why some folks are high up on the list (they're paid to work on a core component), highlight community contributors, show that there is peer-review, that bugs are fixed (maybe even long-standing bugs), etc. If it's a copy/paste of the yearly stats that the bugmasters send on New Year's day, then it's not useful in the report except for one's bragging rights.
