Profiles: Show the number of WordPress releases with user's contributions

[SergeyBiryukov]

​https://jetpack.pro/ has a "Core Contributions" section with the list of all WordPress releases a user has contributed to, see ​https://jetpack.pro/profile/sergeybiryukov/ for an example.

I think it would be a good addition to WP.org profiles.

I would definitely love to see this, I often see contributors updating their About to hold that information and manually update it.

That would help identify people who are currently still active on the project.
It may also help to deter some badge-hunting behaviour, which would be nice.
It looks cool. :)

Reasonable. You could probably use the existing data from the API to do this.

A screenshot of how it currently looks on jetpack.pro, for reference.

Please perform this in a structured way so that later also other Contributions could be added (like to Polyglots, Docs, etc)

+1 for this enhancement, as it would be great to have this automatically generated instead of manually listing your bona fides on your profile page.

Iterating on what Sergey shared above, a contributor's role as release lead, squad member, or props credit could appear differently. Data available via the Credits API seems to support this:

(The lower row of badges isn't necessarily how the legend should appear, but was convenient for demonstration.)

The badges could also possibly link to the ​e.g. corresponding release post, or a graph of releases/contributors (okay, now I'm just dreaming 😆).
