 Currently core compiles a list of props for each release at the end of the
 release, this is based on parsing the git log for props, and then manually
 correcting all the  items within that doesn't quite parse right.

 Something I've wanted to do for a while, is to add realtime props to SVN
 to profile.wordpress.org, which requires having this data in a database
 that we can query.. something which we haven't had with the previous
 method of gathering props.

 It would also be nice to be able to generate certain "reports" for various
 uses, and to be able to highlight contributors for whom have either been
 typo'd in commit messages, or where the actual contributors name isn't
 able to be linked to a WordPress.org user.

 The commits to follow are something I've been tweaking slightly for a few
 weeks, and applies to develop.svn and meta.svn initially.
