I know that is the natural follow up question, but I mean to leave this ambiguous. I don't want to commit to any ideas, and we don't know if/how we will use them in the future. I do mean to suggest that it's possible that badges could have different rewards/incentives attached in the future, just not now.

are just for fun and are meant as a small incentive to continued contributions to the CDK.

The badges have the following meaning:

- `beginning-contributor`: contributed between 0-2 PRs to the CDK
- `repeat-contributor`: contributed between 3-5 PRs to the CDK
- `valued-contributor`: contributed between 6-12 PRs to the CDK
- `admired-contributor`: contributed between 13-24 PRs to the CDK
- `star-contributor`: contributed between 25-49 PRs to the CDK
- `distinguished-contributor`: contributed 50+ PRs to the CDK
