Обсуждение: Update contributors page
I have updated the code contributors page on the web site. I have added Michael Meskes, Tom Lane, and Jan Wieck, and removed some of the previous entries. I wanted to pair down the web page list to just the people who regularly contribute major pieces of code. We still have the HISTORY file on the 'support' page, which lists various contributors for each release. If I have missed people or the text needs to be improved, let me know. -- Bruce Momjian | http://www.op.net/~candle maillist@candle.pha.pa.us | (610) 853-3000+ If your life is a hard drive, | 830 Blythe Avenue + Christ can be your backup. | Drexel Hill, Pennsylvania19026

I'm not sure what you consider "major" but I wonder why it needs to be pared down at all. After all, to be honest, who really looks at that page but the contributors and their family? To me that page is more of an ego boost than anything else. Isn't that part of the reason we contribute anyway? I say we leave in everyone who has added a comma to the project. It doesn't cost anything and it's nice to acknowledge everyone's help, no matter how small their contribution. I see I'm still in the list (first thanks to alphabeticity :-) so obviously I am not arguing for my own benefit here. I just happen to think that lots of little things can contribute to a big project like this and we should encourage any contributions we can. -- D'Arcy J.M.
