This list is software (code) people only -- people who spent time doing things like the FAQ (Terry, for example) appear elsewhere in the LIST (some people appear many places). >And the one who >brought us YP - Theo! Great ! Have him get in touch with me. And anyone else you can think of who should be part of the code contributors list for 386BSD. >All the NetBSD, and 0.1.5 folk, Not 386BSD people, unless their code appears in 386BSD as well. For the record, NETBSD and the 0.1.5 groups are not directly part of 386BSD, and should be considered separate groups. If you wish to make contributions to them and us, make them all separately, so you can make sure it gets to all groups (by the way, that includes linux and mach as well). We haven't received ANYTHING from NETBSD -- not one line of code. >and porters >(e.g., L. Jonas Olsson - FlexFAX, Kenji Okamoto - Ingres8.9), and >testers ... Get them in touch with me. Jonas Olsson did the initial GCC 2.3.3 port, and this is a person we missed. Thank you for bringing his name to our attention! >and financiers A very special group, and one specifically cited. We love these people! They always get top billing! >and distributors (e.g., Jack Velte) and spoilers >and on and on! I have no idea who this person is, as we don't have any official distributors. We haven't gotten anything from this guy, ever. As to spoilers, who needs them? We've got work to do! Read the 0.1 contributors list for an understanding of the format, or look at the release letter for prior Berkeley releases. It's getting better all the time! Please send me email about people, so I can respond to them quickly! Lynne Jolitz 386BSD Development Project ljolitz@cardio.ucsf.edu CIS 76703,4266 FAX: +1-510-420-0174
