I would start with just showing what people do. That doesn't have to be a 'just collect, display and see what happens', any more than that rewarding points has to be 'just give out, display and see what happens'. We can think about what we want to encourage and how just as much.
Showing what people do is all good and nice. But we all should also keep in
mind the other side of this. Show an interest in what other people do.
Appreciate the work of others. Thank people for contribution. Respond to bug
reports, submit requests, etc. with respect and the willingness to make the
best of it. Give constructive feedback to presenters and writers. Attend
events. Spread the word about what the people of openSUSE are doing.
People valuing and appreciating the work of other people. For me that's a much
more powerful motivation than a machine assigning points, no matter how clever
it's done.
