Bad idea..  Some of us would rather not have this sort of info so
centralized about us---especially if it's available to non-developers.  I
might let everyone here know that I'm going to be at LWE next week and
won't be home, but I know my address is not exactly secret and I'd rather
not put a neon sign on my door that says "There's a computer in here that
has been left on and unattended for a week."

No, very bad bad idea...
