People can lie, or at least bend the truth, and I certainly don't want to get into appointing someone to "verify" people's claims of commitment.  If we really want to verify someone's commitment to the project then base it on something measurable - like "only committers can vote" or "only core developers can vote".  Something tangible and not subjective.

People could enter fake data, yes, but we don't necessarily need to
force anyone into entering the data. We can use the data as a way of
spotting fraud, at minimum, and it also gives us a good idea about who
have in the community which is an awesome bonus.
