Recognizing top contributors of MXNet using sourcerer

Hello MXNet community,

Recently while going through a few open source projects, I came across this
banner which acknowledges top contributors to that repository. Noticeably,
huggingface repository has it.

I found it an interesting way to call out contributions made by developers
to the repository. I think MXNet can include this banner in the readme and
highlight its top contributors. It appreciates the work done by the
community members apart from encouraging/inspiring others to contribute as
well.

This banner is created using sourcerer.io. Specifically, Sourcerer.io Hall
of Fame <https://github.com/sourcerer-io/hall-of-fame>.

So, I went ahead and tried to add the similar banner for
apache/incubator-mxnet repository using these steps.
<https://github.com/sourcerer-io/hall-of-fame#getting-started>

Here's how it looks

You can view it in the Readme file of my fork's branch:
https://github.com/ChaiBapchya/incubator-mxnet/tree/patch-2#contributor-hall-of-fame

Does the community think it's a good idea to recognize top contributors?
Can we use sourcerer.io for the same?

SideNote: Sourcerer.io has a repo: awesomelibraries
<https://github.com/sourcerer-io/awesome-libraries/> that serves as a basis
for evaluating Sourcerer profiles. mxnet was already added to it's set of
python libraries. I added other language bindings in this PR-172
<https://github.com/sourcerer-io/awesome-libraries/pull/172> [scala, perl,
java, etc].

Thanks,
Chai
