I think it is a great way to encourage people to contribute. In Apache jclouds we always tweet about new contributors and also about significant contributions made to the code base. We've found this always motivates the contributor. We also have a "Credits" section in our release notes pages for all those new and significant contributors, as a recognition for their effort and help with the project.
