This list seems to be oddly designed anyway. Who is a developer? Is a
developer different than a -hacker?
Not to mention there don't seem to be any defined rules. I asked Berkus
and his reply was, "It has always been a little fuzzy". I asked Devrim
and he gave me 5 bullet points that don't quite make sense.
Further I think this list is in the wrong place. It is
under /developers which to mean is most intuitive to information "for"
developers not a listing of them.
I think the listing should probably go under about/contributors and
under contributors would be:
Core <-- this is obvious Committers <-- this is obvious the only question is it only
committers to the source tree or do we want to give equal billing to
the -www guys (I think yes to equal billing) Members (really I think this should be contributors but then it is
duplicative) Hacker Emeritus Special Thanks (not sure about this, but basically this is "others")
Sincerely,
Joshua D. Drake
