Yes totally. Although we currently think that the best for the community is GitHub improving their GitHub profiles making ghuser.io obsolete. Right now we'd rather do this with GitHub and not against GitHub. But we don't know how much GitHub is willing to help us. (We need changes to the GitHub APIs for ghuser.io to be scalable.)

> private repo

Yea we could do that as well. Give permission to our public key and we're good to go.

> why you would build this if you don't work at github?

Because Aurelien (OP) wanted/needed that so he just built it.

To the both of us it's basically a fun experiment.

Also for me it's cool because we use the web framework Reframe (https://github.com/reframejs/reframe) which I'm currently building.

Just so you know, you have a name collision with a popular ClojureScript SPA library, re-frame: https://github.com/Day8/re-frame

I love these profiles. At GitLab we're very open to contributions to enhance user profiles. One of the hard things might be the performance of these pages, for that you probably need to compute metrics in advance in a background job.
