Comment(by filosofo):

 I've noticed the same problem for months (first asked about it back in
 September 2009).  Another problem is that its core and plugin Trac
 activity seems to go back only to mid-2009.

 Specifically, my profile page does not show
 [http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-db-backup/ WP-DB-Backup].  I
 didn't start its development, but I've been the exclusive developer for
 three and a half years.

 It wouldn't really matter except that over the holidays Matt linked all
 the Trac usernames to the profile page, so my hundreds of Trac comments
 have pageranked it into the top 5 Google results for my full name.  (Not
 to mention, twice someone has changed the WP.org support forum profile URL
 from my blog to this profile page).

 WP.org Support has some algorithm that lets proven users link to their own
 sites; I suggest that Trac do something similar instead of linking to this
 incompletely-developed profile site.
