Hm, this is similar I to an idea I had for something Debian Weekly News
could do. Since I feel a lot of the important stuff that goes on in debian
is treated as just background noise, stuff that will never come to anyone's
attention or make DWN (think: fixed bug reports, cryptic changelog entries
that really represent lots of work, etc), I was thinking about raising
perceptions of these things by focusing on a developer for a week, and
describing everything they did in a fair amount of detail.

Seems that could be an interesting thing to accompny a interview and/or bio.
Though I can't commit to do it every week.
