> > What is the difference between the two files you sent? > Per email on Aug 28: Attached are two lists, nearly identical, of contributors to v19. Each file is a docbook snippet that can be dropped into the release-19.sgml file. The strict-names list filters out a single-named contributors, which usually means a trade name of some sort. Peter Eisentraut has indicated that he filtered out such names in the past, so if that's still the plan then strict-names is the list to use. The as-is-names list still contains those 4 trade names. I have no opinion about which list to use. While commits are still coming in that would fit the v19 window, it may be easier for the committer to manually scan those commits against the existing list (whichever they choose to use) than wait for me to re-generate the list, though I'm happy to do so if requested.
