[Nix-dev] Idea: Add a user group in the github organization

[stewart mackenzie]

Please read pieter hintjens culture and empire, specifically chapter 2

Good contributors should be promoted quickly before they move off onto
other projects. Yes if you choose to use nixos you aren't going anywhere
quickly but nonetheless it's an important hat tip to contributors.

Having their face on the project landing page could be important to them,
as exemplified by the OP.

If one contributes to nixos project that can be seen in his github profile
