One of the things I'm not sure is clarifiable (I may be nitpicking) -
it's not necessarily that the groups closer to the center (as currently
labeled) are more skilled/dedicated to contributing to Fedora than the
ones on the outside. For instance, a kernel dev who uses Fedora (but
otherwise doesn't contribute) has arguably less of an impact on the
project as a whole than, say, a dedicated FAmSCo member, and is not
necessarily as skilled (for instance, a brand new kernel-dev vs an
experienced docs lead.
Again, I may be nitpicking - just want to make sure that we're not
mixing up "type/domain of contribution" with either skill or dedication,
and that it's clear what scale the diagram refers to.
