In thinking about this I might have an additional solution:
A hacker is someone who:
In the last 24 months has contributed -n- number of patches or a patch
of significant value to the project.
Obviously we get into some subjective ideas here, what is a significant
value to the project? HOT and Tsearch2 come to mind and I think that
under no circumstances should we not provide examples.
In all, this is certainly not a perfect solution but there is no such
thing in the first place.
Sincerely,
Joshua D. Drake
