Starting with the 3.2 beta, WordPress contributors are now credited on a fancy new page in the Dashboard. Data is pulled from the contributor’s WordPress.org profile (for example, Andrew Nacin’s profile), so make sure that yours is up to date!
It sure is great to see some up-front recognition for all of the contributors to WordPress. What do you think? Is this a step in the right direction?
Seems like a positive move to me, and it may encourage users to get involved in the development process more than they already may be, if at all.
Nice way to encourage contributing 🙂
