I don't think I want the extra maintenance hassle of maintaining a file manually and I'm not sure there is any evidence it'd encourage contributions.
Either people want to write code and send it or they don't, I don't think putting their name anywhere else is going to help :-). All commit messages are already both permanently stored in Subversion and sent in a mail to tmux-cvs@ mailing list. If you really want a list something like svn log|egrep -o '(from |by )[A-Z][A-Za-z0-9 ]*\.'|sort|uniq -c|less will give you a reasonable idea.
