However, with his AUR repository being disabled, there is no way for people to learn about his work, and it seems as though his contributions to the Arch community have never existed.
Hi,
far too much importance is attached to this point. For example, take a look at an important official package. Although the names of the contributors and maintainers should be familiar to anyone who has been using Arch Linux for a long time, hardly anyone will have taken a look at the PKGBUILD.
Regards, Ralf
Employers do like to see open source contributions and I could see it being useful when applying for a position.
