The karma system was removed a while ago because it never did what it was 
intended to do. We have since moved to other forms of recognition such as 
listing patches submitted by developers and those who helped test a bug in the 
ChangeLogs. We also list at least 5 issues that have been resolved by the 
community in the release announcements, which has proven to be a better way of 
recognizing those who contribute on a regular basis.
