Open Certification

I want to add to that.

As of now, Mozillians are forced to exhibit the work they do by tweeting, blogging, sharing, advertising themselves wherever they can so that others recognize their effort.

Basically, this works like if a Mozillian wants to be recognized, they have to create a profile of their own, documenting all that they do.

And if someone’s not interested/not capable of creating such a profile for themselves, their contributions disappear from sight.

And, there’s very little others can do to surface their contributions. We can thank someone in a tweet. Tweets disappear in the never-ending feed. We can thank someone in a blog post. Blog posts go down, to the next page, and disappears. We can give them an open badge. But where do they display it?

We must figure out a way to crowd-source the documentation of each Mozillian rather than putting the responsibility on individual Mozillians themselves.
