Wow!  Thank you so much.  Love the criteria.  I added a couple!

http://piratepad.net/first-time-contributor-review

I'm thinking of turning that landing page into the head of the kraken.
I'd love to leave the evaluation of StatusNet on this page, and then
link to lots of other projects from there.

I'm going to do an evaluation of PostgreSQL now. :)

I'm working on another project with Ward Cunningham, and this
evaluation system actually works really well in it.
