If you wish to certify somebody as willing to join endless flamewars,
to idle around in IRC and devote his time to volunteer work, yes, it
might - Often, certifications care about the individual and not about
its interactions with any group, but merely take a snapshot on their
proficiency on a limited set of practical abilities at a given point
in time (remember that most certifications will expire sooner than
later).
