Hello,
I came with a little bit strange question here. Has anybody ever heard about any organizations which provide formal trainings / certification in open source / free software expertise?
I do not mean the technical expertise in specific open source software. But rather the OSS contributions / licensing issues - e.g., to know what is the difference between copyright and copyleft, what is the difference between AGPL, GPL and LGPL, why it is a bad practice to copy the code from open source project into closed-sourced project without looking to the licenses etc.
If somebody is accredited as a developer with a large project like Debian that is usually a sign that they have a strong grasp of these concepts.

Not only that they actually CARE it is easy to get a bit of paper, it is much harder to care about what that bit of paper represents.
