I entered several projects I contribute to that are hosted on github and registered with rubygems, and got smiley-faced github icons for all of them.

I'm not sure what it's checking on github.

It would probably make a lot of sense to check more of the popular package management hosts too (which all, by their nature, offer convenient API's for doing so). CPAN, Rubygems, PyPI, Bower.
