Not sure there is a policy. I've usually added contributors only if it's more than just 1-2 patches. Of course I name them in the commit. > Is there a policy on sort order?

I used to include the email address but resorted to the name only when I "realized" that email addresses or just not forever. > For commons-compress I'm going to track down the contributors to Ant's > original code base since the current state really doesn't reflect the > contributions of the people who wrote the code in the first place. Those should be listed in the NOTICE.txt IMO ...which currently lists: Original BZip2 classes contributed by Keiron Liddle <kei...@aftexsw.com>, Aftex Software to the Apache Ant project Original Tar classes from contributors of the Apache Ant project Original Zip classes from contributors of the Apache Ant project Original CPIO classes contributed by Markus Kuss and the jRPM project (jrpm.sourceforge.net) cheers -- Torsten --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@commons.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@commons.apache.org
