I could say the same of the sponsors list ...

It's constantly out of date, yes. The problem is that updating it is a
highly manual process without good tools since each change in
contributor level needs to be checked with a committee. Which makes it
easy to put off for large amounts of time.

If someone wants to take on writing a tool which would allow a small
group of people to vote on contributor level changes, additions and
removals on a continous-flow basis, be my guest. It would help a lot.
