Summary: This is an experiment. There are a couple diffferent meanings of “weight” in play: most prominently, weights assigned by plugins versus those suitable for comparison among other arbitrary weights. We’re not sure what the right thing is to put in the actual graph object, so we’re going to think about this a bit more before adding the field back in. wchargin-branch: remove-weights |

SourceCred
The open-source community provides an enormous amount of value to the world. However, open-source contributors go largely unrewarded and unrecognized. SourceCred aims to help that situation, by building tools that enable quantitatively measuring the value that open-source contributors provide to individual projects, and to the community as a whole.
SourceCred will create a "Cred Graph", which is a graph that shows how the contributions that compose open-source projects are related to and derive value from each other. From this, we'll be able to assign "cred" to users based on how valuable their contributions are. Cred will be assigned based on a mixture of objective data (e.g. references between GitHub pull requests) and subjective feedback (e.g. projects' own judgments on how important different contributions were).
