-------------------------+--------------------
 A way to Trac contributions across both Trac and GitHub does not yet
 exist. This makes it difficult to properly compile a list of contributors
 on release days, and often leads to people accidentally left out or not
 receiving the proper level of credit.

 Compiling the list also requires some work of manually matching
 WordPress.org and GitHub usernames.

 Previously #3885, #4442.

 Some ideas have been:
 - Add a field to profiles.w.org for GitHub account.
 - Create a text file that maps GitHub usernames to .org accounts that can
 be updated every release and can be used to script this.
