Hi!
One of the first things that the openSUSE board have been working on is getting some clear acknowledgment through for all good openSUSE contributors. The result of this can be seen through what we think of as "openSUSE Members"[0].
We are glad to announce that the process for becoming a member has just been approved by the board, and that we are now happy to take any applications. Please have a look at the wiki page for instructions on doing so.
We hope that this will further distinguish active and helpful contributors to openSUSE, and in doing so bring the openSUSE community closer together.
Have a lot of fun!
Thank you for the invitation to apply. I just took a quick look at the wiki page and it looks interesting. One thing I'd like to ask/suggest: There appears to be no definition of what is considered a "verifiable contribution." "Mail the openSUSE board at board@opensuse.org mentioning your [verifiable] contributions." Can you expand to define what is considered a "verifiable contribution?" In many ways, I believe that we all contribute simply by downloading openSUSE and communicating with others our experiences (and issues.) Obviously when you mention "substantial", there is an implied bar that is set between standard community participation and higher level contribution.
