The upside is, that is makes it easier to see what karma people have, the
downside is that it creates a sort of grouping, which is kind of unwanted.
Right, thats a big negative.
Please let me hear what you think ?
I dont think it to be an improvement a/ for the reasons you named and b/
because I dont imagine that list to be used much at all beyond for the license
statement and rarely maybe a IRC nick to git name mapping.
So, Id suggest to keep that (huge) table as is.
Best,

In a real sense, karma is a negative. On a discussion forum like Hacker News it can be helpful, but
even there they discourage it. It certainly encourages gamesmanship, and that’s very bad for a
merit based project.
I used to be very involved in Wikipedia (I invented [citation needed] and their admin’s
noticeboard) and so I am speaking from experience.
It’s nice to know the number of commits that have been made, but an artificial grouping is not only
unimportant, but can causing serious friction between contributors.
