 Badge description:

 Badges is a fantastic way to incentivize contributors and recognize
 activity. We already have a "meta" series of badges that is awarded for
 hitting milestone numbers of badges, so awarding badges for collecting
 groups or sequences of badges, can direct activity even further.

 After doing some rudimentary analysis on the badges community, I've
 compiled a list of the most common badges that are awarded for signing up
 for accounts and participating at a base level in the project.

 These so far include:
         baby badger
         Let me Introduce myself
         bloggin' it
         crypto badger
         crypto panda
         Curious Penguin
         Involvement
         Mugshot
         Speakup!
         Macaron Cookie
         Origin
         Junior Tagger
         Junior Package Tagger
         White Rabbit






 Help the badges team understand what this idea is all about.  If this
 badge is awarded for certain kinds of activities:
 1) This badge is awarded for collecting each of the badges in the list
 above.
 2) This badge will most often be awarded to newcomers, but can be awarded
 to anyone who has previously collected the bootstapped series.
 3) The series basically establishes a general familiarity with the Fedora
 Account System, Planet, IRC, and Tagger. This is
 4) The badges would be awarded on an ongoing basis, but only once per
 user.
 5) In theory, a .yaml rules file, similar to the one that awards badges
 for achieving milestone amounts of badges could be adapted?

 Lastly, do you have any ideas for artwork concepts?

 6) In my mind's eye, I can imagine the artwork for this being a boot.
 Something like pegasus boots, with a Fedora Logo, and wings on them? Or
 perhaps something more tech-y, like a Megaman style rocket-powered robo-
 boot, with a glowing Fedora Logo? Something with boots, the Fedora Logo,
 and being able to move at an improved rate :)


 As an additional bit of data, I'd like to utilize a series like this to
 help establish a path for onboarding new contributors and applicants to
 Fedora's Outreachy program this winter: http://bit.ly/fedoraoutreachy2015
