GitLab Notable Contributor

Every month GitLab recognizes one or more wider community members with the GitLab Notable Contributor award. This was formerly known as GitLab MVP ("Most Valuable Person"). GitLab Notable Contributors earn:

• Featured write-up in the GitLab release post.
• Notable Contributor achievement badge in their user profile.
• GitLab rewards store credits.

Everyone is eligible for consideration and we value both code and non-code contributions to GitLab as well as contributors who uphold the GitLab Values and support the community. Nominate a community contributor by commenting in the current nomination issue.
