The problem there is basically that we don't know who to list. I suppose we could go back to the beginning of Manoj's arch history and then troll the changelog for more people to list, but that has a lot of limitations. Also, we'd be listing dozens of people if we were comprehensive, although I suppose we could move that to an appendix. See http://bugs.debian.org/47438 for lots of discussion of this. -- Russ Allbery (r...@debian.org) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-policy-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
