While I like the idea and would probably benefit from it myself, I'm a bit sceptical when it comes to making OpenWrt.org an institution certifying developers. Too much trouble was caused over having '@openwrt.org' addresses and I doubt we are able to handle the moderation needs (think: classic fraud, fishing, ...) of such a thing if it is even a wiki, ie. free to edit for all. Things like a wiki with only volunteer moderation somehow work because there is little to no commercial interest in manipulation and it is usually easy to recognize (ie. classic spam). In the moment that we change that, we have to be prepared to also face a different quality of manipulation attempts.
