Next step is put up an incubator/podling proposal for vote?
Wait what? No, this wouldn't be a podling, if you're proposing that we
run a service like Badgr. It would just be a service that someone stands
up and runs. A podling is for a new software project, developed here at
the Foundation. I don't think that's what you're suggesting.
Is it the same incubator procedure as it’s a proposed infra service?
Anyone willing to mentor? Champion?
No, we don't need anything near that level of complexity. Just someone
to stand up a service.

Depending on the badges it might also easy to game. e.g. if I need 100
commits to get a badge, then I’m going to make lots of small commute rather
than one big one. If there a badge for emails send to lest then I’m going
to send more emails. I ‘m not sure that this would bee a positive gain for
the community.
+1 - I have similar concerns.
Now, if there was a way to take advantage of people's tendency to want
more badges / a higher score to encourage behaviour that is a positive
benefit to the community then that could be very interesting. I am
thinking along the lines of Stackoverflow's reputation (although I
recognise that that is not without issues). The biggest challenge is
that it would need to work with mailing lists.
Maybe get a project, or a small number of projects, involved to run
pilots of various schemes to see what works and what does not.
