Regarding reported issues: kind of hard to not forget anyone. It happens
very often that some issues are reported on the forum and sometimes the
devs are creating the issue, without the ability to attribute it (since the
user does not exist on JIRA).
Also we could close some issues that are years old and would be a bit odd.
On Design, the proposal might be implemented after some time, so these
things don't quite reflect the workload for that particular period of time.
Thanks,

Yes we discussed these things before in :
[Vote] Showcase contributors in the Release Notes

[Proposal] Extend the ack section of the Release Notes

The problem was that it's kind of hard to not forget someone. We also have
translators on l10n.
The QA team could add themselves when they test the release (since usually
they test after the release and also they switch the attribution).

Hi,
We’ve been having 3 persons in the community who help test XWiki every
day and who report jira issues: Ilie, Gabriela and Manuel. Manuel has been
doing this over 4 years now (close to 5 actually)!
They’re important and they help XWiki get better every day and release
over release.
I think we should recognize them more in the project.
I have 2 ideas:
* Mention this role of QA engineer on http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin
/view/Community/HallOfFame and make it more “official"
* Make them visible in the RN. Right now in the RN we mention everyone
who contributed code. I think we could also mention everyone who created a
JIRA issue that got fixed during that release.
WDYT? Any other idea?
Thanks

PS: I forgot if I already sent a mail on this topic or not (couldn’t find
one but it vaguely rings a bell). Anyone remembers? :)
