Can’t say I’m a fan of that kind of policy, but well, your initiative, your rules.
So far already 2 donators public-ly committed to the Sailfish OS community team, and I received 80€ in “secret” donation. As I stated I’ll re-inject those when the last invitees will be in.
I still hope for 3 to join.
It’s already great to see that everything is working fine. Don’t hesitate to step in, you fellow supporters !
Invite @Rikudou_Sennin 
I think the more the merrier … and more probable the profile reaches a greater number of contributors!

Ahhh you think that’s it !? Thanks @poetaster for the hint.
I really would like not to give up on clear transparent process (I’m not fan of co-optation).
I see that @Rikudou_Sennin is decorated with 10 golden badges in this forum, and it’s an impressive verifiable achievement toward the community. I suggest to accept also anyone with 5 or more golden badges in this forum (and whom would ask, providing a Liberapay link).
So lets sum up what we have so far: [edit: moved to the top]
My wish is to reveal what exists finding regular and verifiable reasons to invite a lot.
I just invited a Rikudou user on Liberapay, but even what is evident when not said is better when said

Might i suggest also including the (non Jolla) community mods who freely dedicate a huge amount of time and energy to making this forum a better place?

Hi,
Is that the same as “community ports” on unofficial devices ? Like @rinigus recently did for the Sony 1/5 IV ?
In this regard, sure they have great public realizations. Rinigus is already invited and I miss the knowledge to find more of them (on Liberapay already). But its never too late to create an account !
Thanks @rgp for this contribution.
Don’t really know what the acceptance criterias should be, but I agree with @rgp, community mods put quite a lot of time and effort keeping this forum nice and clean. I would also suggest @Mister_Magister as one of the included.

Sure, obvious (they’re mods), we just need them to present Liberapay links.
Still you might be the best one to suggest the right rule for him.
We might work this out in private until ready if you prefer as it might be uncomfortable to discuss merits of every one here, one by one.
I named rules in the hope to spare us that

I also think that rules should be agreed between the devs and people that are included. But in @Mister_Magister case, I think he should be included as he contributes towards open source bits of code and has created multiple apps and ports that are widely used. I think he fulfils at least the requirement of the accepted PR and published app requirement. Although I am not currently sure if the app requirement was only for apps published in Harbour? This is just suggestion, but I think you should agree the rules first between yourselves

A great number of devs don’t publish to Harbour at all for reasons we all know.
But it’s not for me to decide for others.

Looks great, lets find one public commit link with less than 3 years in something installable from Storeman or Chum ? (or port repository ?)
And then a Liberapay link
If you really need to “find that” then I’m not interested in working with people who don’t even appreciate me
Guess over decade worth of contribution is just not enough for little old me to be even worth recognizing
@Siltaar you are showing a bit of the naive ‘noob’ vis. @Mister_Magister who has been around sind the paleolithic sailfish age and maintains numerous apps and ports. I’m a bit of a noob in comparison since I only really started doing development work for sailfish about 5 years ago.

@Mister_Magister Sorry I did hurt your feelings. It was not my intention.
@poetaster Thank you, again, a lot. And thanks for the link.
I don’t find a Mister_Magister’s Liberapay account to invite, but as soon as it will appear here it will be processed.
Forum biographies would help in our case…
I’m also offering help here with no time to investigate : better one whom knows than 10 searching.

No problem, but it could be an issue if you create ‘qualifications’ for admittance which numerous people here have and you have just simply not been around to know. I’ll try to come up with a further list. But I’m a bit busy with bugs

You’re welcome. I’ve read in the forum that waves of newbies are something… but let’s hope we’ll have plenty other waves !
“The account Mister_Magister have been invited" :-)
