Also to help discussion, here are examples of possible new roles and
achievements:

Roles:

   - Project Contributor - contribute to one or more of the Labs projects
   (i.e. on projects page)
   - Project Lead - atm i don't think we distinguish from contributor

Achievement

   - Website fix - you have submitted at least one pull request to improve
   the website
   - (Made a) post to forum or mailing list [in some specified time period]
   - ....

Regards,

Rufus
