I really like that, i.e., for SAGE we could have "The SAGE Group". I've updated http://www.sagemath.org/pub.html based on our discussions. > 2. Singular uses the main developers > > [GPS05] G.-M.

I don't think that is so good, since it seems unfair to me to other developers not listed, and it makes it harder for the developer list to grow. I want no obstructions to the SAGE developer base growing. In fact, I really really want it to grow by a factor of 5 within the next year or so. It needs to, if we are to be able to match the multi-million dollar resources of Matlab/Mathematica/Maple.
