Good ideas. Yes a manual list will probably be outdate quickly. The interesting part for this team page is a bio/description who you are and how you work on Cordova I think. Like if you are working with Cordova on you side projectes or you are part of Company heavily invested in Cordova. Stuff like that.
Maybe we should fetch a list of all committers from the official Apache sources and sort/enricht them with the recently most active commiters and possibly their bio/description. This definitly needs further ideas.
