Tim pointed out that it's worth travelling simply for the new timezone in your
debian/changelog entries.
We can use
AptFs to work out who has collected the most so far:
import os
import glob
import itertools
import collections
from dateutil.parser import parse
from debian.changelog import Changelog
data = collections.defaultdict(set)
for package in glob.glob('/apt/*'):
if os.path.islink(package):
continue # Consider source packages only
try:
changelog = Changelog(open('%s/debian/changelog' % package))
except:
continue # Ignore invalid changelogs
for entry in changelog:
try:
data[entry.author].add(parse(entry.date).strftime('%z'))
except ValueError:
pass # Ignore invalid dates
fn = lambda x: len(x[1])
top = sorted(data.items(), key=fn, reverse=True)
for k, g in itertools.groupby(top, key=fn):
print "\n%d timezone(s):" % k
for author, timezones in sorted(g):
print " * %s (%s)" % (
author.encode('utf8', 'ignore'),
', '.join(sorted(timezones, reverse=True)),
)
14 timezone(s):

However, something tells me we aren't going to see widespread gamification of Debian development.
Many people worked on finishing DEP 5. I think that the blog of
Lars does not show enough how collective
the effort was.
Looking in the specification's
text,
one finds:
Out of curiosity, and because it is Sunday morning and I have a cold and
can't get my brain to do anything tricky, I counted the number of
candidates in each year's DPL elections.
Today, the Internet will be full of bullshit.

Even if i don't like talking about this in public, 
I don t know enough about SVG scripting and object cloning, so to do
the text shadow you will have to edit the same object twice. Sorry about
that. Here are the files:
