In <a href="http://symfony.com/blog/developing-the-symfony-community">this new post</a> to the Symfony Blog, <i>Fabien Potencier</i> shares some of his thoughts about the Symfony community and tosses out an idea of a way to "gameify" the process to let community members proudly show off their level of involvement.
</p>
<blockquote>
When I say "community", I'm not talking about just the Symfony community, but I'm talking about all the people that are part of a larger ecosystem that makes Symfony better. [...] The corner stone of such a system is a unique account where all information are gathered and aggregated. We already have such a system on symfony-project.org but it is quite limited as it is only used for authentication.
</blockquote>
<p>
Related to this goal, they've introduced <a href="https://connect.sensiolabs.com/">SenseioLabs Connect</a>, a site for tracking accounts "on steroids" and the <a href="http://awards.symfony.com/">Symfony Community Awards</a> that lets you nominate individuals for awards like "Best Blogger", "Best Support in the Forum" and "Best Evangelist". <a href="http://awards.symfony.com/">Voting</a> is open and will run until December 24th with the winners announced in January 2012.
